After spending a little more than two months in the Maximum Security Prison of Ocampo, Guanajuato, the ex leader of the criminal organization Los Zetas, Oscar Omar Trevino Morales, "El Z-42" was returned to Cefereso number 1 "Altiplano" by judicial order.
According to information from the weekly ZETA, a district judge in matters of amparo in Mexico City, determined that that penitentiary authorities violated the definitive suspension that the capo had to not be removed from the Mexican prison until a trial of guarantees was resolved promoted by the latter.
However, in spite of this restriction, on the 21st of September passed, the director general of Cefereso number 1 transferred "Z-42" to Cefereso number 12 Guanajuato, in compliance with the case SEGOB/CNS/OADPRS/38527/2016 drawn by the OADPRS.
Later, Oscar Omar Trevino Morales, the same as his brother Miguel Angel "El Z-40" and other prisoners, have achieved their return to the prison of "Altiplano" after being transferred on the 30th of September of 2015 to Cefereso number 13 Oaxaca. To date, the majority of these capos were returned to the prison where they were originally incarcerated.
Coincidentally the return of Omar Trevino, for the second occasion, happened at the end of the year, as occurred in 2015.
