# Detention of Samuel Adrián in Colombia > Live situation record from CLSTR: https://clstr.news/situations/detention-of-samuel-adrin-in-colombia > Updated: 2026-09-14T01:31:58.000Z. Sources: 23. Developments: 2. Mexican content creator Samuel Adrián was detained at El Dorado International Airport in Bogotá on September 13, 2026. The arrest resulted from a contempt of court order (desacato) issued by a court in Cali following a ‘tutela’ (legal protection) action. The judicial order stems from Adrián’s refusal to remove his YouTube documentary, ‘Colombia: fábrica de niños trans’, which questions medical protocols regarding gender transition in minors. The legal mechanism was triggered by a filing from specialist physician Mario Angulo, who alleged that the documentary’s use of undercover footage violated his rights to honor and privacy. As a result, Adrián faces 10 days of arrest and a fine equivalent to 15 minimum monthly wages. Following the detention, the Mexican Ministry of Foreign Affairs (SRE) confirmed it is providing consular assistance to Adrián, noting that he is in good health. The incident has prompted broader public debate; Colombian political figure Abelardo De La Espriella has called for national legislation to establish limits on medical procedures for minors. Prior to his detention, Adrián argued that the ruling constitutes an attack on freedom of expression and claimed that children are the true victims of the medical procedures addressed in his content. ## Timeline ### 2026-09-14: Samuel Adrián arrested in Colombia over documentary controversy Mexican documentarian Samuel Adrián was arrested in Bogotá for contempt of court after refusing to remove his film questioning gender transition protocols for minors in Colombia. 14 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/samuel-adrin-detained-in-bogot-over-documentary-contempt-order ### 2026-08-19: Daniel Briceño faces arrest for contempt of court in Bogotá A Bogotá court confirmed a one-day arrest and fine for Representative Daniel Briceño for contempt of court after he failed to properly retract allegations against former official Gloria Cuartas. 10 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/daniel-briceo-faces-arrest-for-contempt-of-court-in-bogot --- Cite as: Detention of Samuel Adrián in Colombia.
