Valdemar 'N' is identified as a suspected member of the Gulf Cartel, considered a priority target for his alleged involvement in international drug trafficking and various violent incidents.

The primary detainee, identified as Valdemar 'N', also known as 'Valdo', is considered a high-priority target. Officials accuse him of orchestrating the trafficking of significant quantities of methamphetamine and cocaine. He is also reportedly the intellectual author behind numerous homicides in both Mexico and the United States. Investigations suggest Valdemar 'N' previously held a key position within the CJNG before leaving due to internal disputes and joining the Gulf Cartel.
