In Mexico, criminal proceedings have been initiated against two individuals regarding crimes against women.

In Sonora, a judge linked Luis Fernando ‘N’, known as ‘El Güicho’, to a process for aggravated illegal deprivation of liberty following an incident in Magdalena de Kino on September 12, 2026. The victim was allegedly abducted, threatened, and held against her will in a remote area. The investigation by the Fiscalía General de Justicia del Estado de Sonora (FGJES) noted elements of gender-based violence.

In Baja California Sur, a man identified as Ricardo “N” was linked to a criminal process in Comondú involving four counts of making threats against a former partner. The investigation by the Procuraduría General de Justicia del Estado (PGJE) detailed emotional aggressions and death threats occurring between July and September 2026. A judge has ordered justified preventive detention for the accused.
