JULY 17, 2024

The alleged drug lord was arrested in Miramar beach south of Tamaulipas and transferred to El Altiplano prison.

(Authorities in Mexico announced the arrest of Antonio Guadalupe Pérez Domínguez, known as “El Escorpión 17” and leader of two of the Gulf Cartel’s main cells (Los Ciclones and Los Escorpiones) in the towns of Matamoros and Reynosa, who has already been handed over to the judicial system.

The Mexican government said in a statement published on its website that the arrest took place on July 16 in Ciudad Madero, in the state of Tamaulipas, as part of an operation by the Special Reaction and Intervention Force (FERI) of the National Guard (GN).

He indicated that the man was arrested in Miramar beach “as a result of inter-institutional coordination to strengthen the rule of law in the country and detect criminal organizations in that state,” before highlighting that he had an arrest warrant issued by a judge.

“A tactical team from FERI, in support of the Special Prosecutor’s Office for Organized Crime (Femdo) and the Criminal Investigation Agency (AIC), through intelligence work and field activities, located Antonio Guadalupe “N”, who allegedly formed part of the criminal structure of the Gulf Cartel (CDG), as the alleged leader of said criminal organization with presence in Matamoros, Tamaulipas, who had an arrest warrant issued by a federal judge”.

“El Escorpión 17” has already been transferred to El Altiplano prison in the state of Mexico, where he was ‘placed at the disposal of the competent authorities, who will determine his legal situation,’ according to the government, which stated that four other people have been arrested as a result of this arrest.

“With this arrest, we have contributed to weakening a criminal organization with a presence in the state of Tamaulipas, limiting its financial activities, trafficking of illegal immigrants and drugs to the United States, and the illegal introduction of firearms into national territory,” it said, before stressing that the operation was carried out ‘with strict adherence to the rule of law and with full respect for human rights’.

Finally, he said that the operation demonstrates that “the NG reaffirms the unwavering decision of the federal government to continue acting against organized crime, meeting the needs that society demands”, while “reaffirming its commitment to ensure and safeguard the welfare of citizens, guaranteeing the peace and security of the population”.
