Atlixco security official Antonio Hernández Pacheco arrested

Antonio Hernández Pacheco, the former head of Public Security in Atlixco, Puebla, has been arrested. The detention follows an arrest warrant issued by a court based on investigations by the State Attorney General's Office (FGE).

He is accused of abuse of authority, failure to fulfill legal duties, and bribery. Following the arrest, which occurred on the Vía Atlixcáyotl, Hernández Pacheco was placed in preventive prison. Juan Manuel Bravo has assumed the role of Secretary of Citizen Security for Atlixco.

Puebla Governor Alejandro Armenta Mier stated that the state respects the law and that the arrest was conducted in strict adherence to the legal framework. This case is part of a broader trend in the region, as seven municipal security heads in Puebla have recently been detained.
