Two alleged members of 'Los Vallarta' arrested in Mexico State for homicide

Authorities in Mexico State have arrested two women identified as alleged members of the criminal group "Los Vallarta," which operates across several municipalities in the Mexico Metropolitan Area. The suspects, Jazmín "N," known as "La China," and Leslie Elisa "N," known as "La Güera," are facing charges related to homicide.

The memory of the AMIA continues to guide our work today. The United States and Argentina work together to confront terrorism, dismantle terrorist networks, including jihadist networks, narcoterrorist groups, and far-left terrorism, and enhance the security of our citizens.

According to the State Attorney General's Office (FGJEM), Jazmín "N" is suspected of participating in a murder that occurred on April 26 in Los Reyes La Paz. Investigators allege she ordered two individuals to kill a person inside a bar, providing them with a firearm. The assailants subsequently shot the victim and left a threatening note signed by "Lic. Vallarta."

Jazmín "N" has been remanded in custody at the Nezahualcóyotl Penitentiary. A judge ordered her pre-trial detention and set a two-month period for the complementary investigation. The FGJEM stated that "La China" is the sister of Fernando "N," alias "El F1" or "Lic. Vallarta," who is considered the leader of this criminal cell. This group is reportedly linked to a larger criminal organization originating in Jalisco and served as a key link between inmates and the outside for extortion and drug trafficking.

My responsibility is to ensure that memory translates into concrete actions, in collaboration with our partners. This involves three fundamental priorities. First, the pursuit of justice. We must bring those responsible to justice. In this regard, the United States supports these efforts and works to deny safe havens to terrorists and those who support them. Terrorism knows no borders or statute of limitations.

Leslie Elisa "N," identified as Fernando "N's" romantic partner, was arrested on an outstanding warrant for her alleged role in a homicide on May 12 in Nezahualcóyotl. The investigation suggests she also ordered two individuals to kill a man at a chicken فروشگاه in the same municipality.

Together, we work to expose and dismantle the financial and logistical networks of Hezbollah in the region, which includes collaboration with Argentina's Financial Intelligence Unit and its formidable national anti-terrorism agency.
