NewzThe Fiscalía General de la República (FGR) has secured a federal prison sentence of 19 years, six months, and 20 days against four individuals convicted of drug trafficking offenses. The defendants were apprehended off the coast of Lázaro Cárdenas in the state of Michoacán.
The arrests occurred after authorities intercepted two vessels, commonly referred to as narcolanchas, operating in the region. During the interdiction, law enforcement personnel seized approximately 650 kilograms of cocaine that the suspects were transporting.
The successful prosecution highlights ongoing federal efforts to combat maritime drug trafficking along Mexico's coastline. The case was handled through federal judicial channels, resulting in the lengthy prison terms for all four defendants involved in the operation.
