San Luis Potosí’s Guardia Civil Estatal (GCE), the state civil guard, detained
34 people in recent hours for their alleged involvement in various criminal
acts.[1] The detentions were linked to alleged offences including possession
of drugs, robbery, carrying a prohibited weapon, offences against traffic
safety, family violence, driving a vehicle with a theft report and dangerous
assault.[1] Those detained were placed at the disposal of the competent
authorities for the corresponding investigations.[1]
During the same interventions, the force recovered a vehicle with a theft report
and seized 996.3 grams of marijuana.[1] The same operation also secured 436
doses of methamphetamine, 110 doses of cocaine and 41 doses of crack, along with
10 metal artefacts known as “ponchallantas”; only the separately stated
marijuana weight is counted as cannabis here.[1]
The state Secretariat of Security and Citizen Protection said it would maintain
operational presence and prevention work in the state’s four regions through
permanent actions to protect the safety and property of families in San Luis
Potosí.[1]
