Authorities arrested four men with surnames Romero Murillo (40), Maroto Granados (27), Maroto Salazar (30) and Ramírez Rojas (40). The latter was a former agent of the PCD, as confirmed by police sources.
Agents of the OIJ received confidential information and that lead them to conduct raids in San Blas, La Pitahaya, and confiscate six vehicles, which were used for the distribution of drugs.
