Among the detainees were two brothers identified as Manuel “N” and Mario “N”, the latter noted as alleged head of the criminal group La Línea.
However, days later, Estefanía Hernández, Manuel’s daughter, said that neither her father if her uncle were involved in multihomicide and that they were only “scapegoats”.
In an interview for the newspaper Reforma, Estefanía said that one of his aunts – sister of the detainees – spoke to them at the facilities of the Attorney General of the Republic (FGR) in Nuevo Casas Grandes, Chihuahua, and told him that they were being pressured to testify were members of the criminal group.
