A man identified by Chihuahua state prosecutors only as “Manuel G. M.” was arrested in Monterrey and flown to Ciudad Juárez this week to face arrest warrants accusing him of five homicides and an aggravated kidnapping. The cases span from 2016 to 2020 and include a triple killing at a Juárez bar and a slaying in the parking lot of a convenience store, according to investigators.
The Chihuahua State Attorney General’s Office said the suspect was presented before a judge after being detained in Nuevo León following intelligence work by several units, and that he was transferred to Juárez to be brought before the courts, as reported by KVIA. The agency credited the Specialized Prosecutor’s Office for Strategic Operations, the Arrest Warrant Unit of the State Investigation Agency in the northern zone, and collaboration with Nuevo León investigators for pulling the operation together.
Charges And Alleged Incidents
State prosecutors say the outstanding orders include an aggravated kidnapping from Sept. 24, 2017, at a home in the Parajes del Valle neighborhood and a triple homicide on Oct. 7, 2016, at an establishment known as “Tres Cantinas” or “Bar Tres Mentiras.” They also allege an aggravated homicide on June 18, 2020, in the parking lot of a “Smart” convenience store at the intersection of Zaragoza and Independencia in the Manuel Valdez neighborhood, according to El Heraldo de Juárez.
