Elements of Criminal Investigation Agency (AIC) of the Attorney General's Office (PGR) arrested Luis Arellano Romero, 'El Helio' or 'El Bichy'" in Ciudad Juarez, Chihuahua, considered one of Mexico 's most wanted criminals by the DEA Agency for Drug Control of the United States of America.
The elements of the AIC, completed the arrest warrant for extradition issued against Arellano Romero for crimes of conspiracy, organized crime, money laundering and trafficking of firearms.
Arellano Romero is considered as one of the operational leaders of the Sinaloa cartel and close aide of Joaquin El Chapo Guzman and Ismael El Mayo Zambada.
Since 27 September 2014, the accused is required by the Federal Court of Texas, USA, and was transferred to Mexico City by members of the AIC, where he will continue the proceedings against him.
"Murder, kidnapping, money laundering, and drug trafficking are the four corners of this organization's foundation," U.S. Attorney Robert Pitman said in a previous statement. "For years, their violence, ruthlessness, and complete disregard for human life and the rule of law have greatly impacted the citizens of the Republic of Mexico and the United States. They must be held accountable for their criminal actions."
