Animal cruelty and drug seizure investigation in Coahuila

Overview

Authorities in Castaños, Coahuila, conducted a raid on the Fundación Frichem animal shelter, discovering between 53 and 63 dogs suffering from severe malnutrition, dehydration, and open wounds. Two animals died following the rescue. During the search, investigators also seized over 11 kilograms of marijuana and methamphetamine residues.

José Manuel “N”, a caregiver for the foundation, was placed under preventive detention. While the foundation denied allegations of kidnapping and extortion, claiming animals arrived in poor health from previous precarious conditions, legal proceedings progressed.

By August 19, José Manuel “N” was formally linked to a criminal process for animal cruelty and violence against sentient beings. A judge ordered him into preventive prison and transferred him to a facility in Saltillo. The defendant also faces accusations regarding the narcotics found on-site. Additionally, Lizbeth “N”, the president of the Frichem Foundation, is currently held under preventive prison in Monclova. A three-month period has been granted for a complementary investigation, with the next hearing scheduled for November 19.
