Mexico City prosecutors have records of two investigations opened in 2007 involving Diego Sebastián “N”, the Argentine businessman detained in connection with a multiple homicide in Atizapán de Zaragoza, State of Mexico. Jonathan Meléndez, the keyboardist for the band Camilo Séptimo, was killed in that case.
Mexico City Attorney General Bertha Alcalde Luján said one file involved domestic violence, while the other concerned threats allegedly made against an elderly woman. She stressed that neither investigation is related to the Atizapán case.
“There are two investigation files, well, one preliminary inquiry identified as dating from 2007 involving domestic violence, and another linked to the crime of threats, in which an elderly woman reported this person that same year,” Alcalde Luján said.

Mexico City Security Secretary Pablo Vázquez Camacho said the capital assisted with intelligence information and earlier monitoring of vehicles. Authorities incorporated that material into the investigation led by the State of Mexico prosecutor’s office, in coordination with federal agencies.
“We remain attentive in Mexico City to identifying and, if necessary, contacting any additional victims who may exist, particularly in connection with fraud,” Vázquez Camacho said. He added that authorities know customers at one of the businesses involved lived in Mexico City.
