Gabriela Alejandra 'N', also known as 'La Patrona', has been apprehended in Merida, Yucatán, where she faces serious charges connected to drug dealing and multiple homicides. She is suspected of being a key figure in a drug trafficking cell linked to several violent crimes, including a recent triple execution in the eastern region of Yucatán. The arrest was made by the State Investigation Police (PEI), which claims that La Patrona's criminal network operates in the nearby city of Chetumal, Quintana Roo.

The PEI has stated that La Patrona is married to an individual nicknamed Valerio, also known as 'El Monkey', who is believed to lead a group of drug dealers in Chetumal. Following her arrest, she was brought before a Control Court in Mérida, where her arrest warrant was validated, and she was subsequently remanded to the Mérida women's prison. The judicial proceedings reflect the authorities' efforts to tackle organized crime and address the increasing violence associated with drug trafficking in the region.

La Patrona's capture signals a strategic strike against organized crime in Yucatán, as her apprehension may disrupt the operations of her drug trafficking network. This event underscores the ongoing challenges faced by Mexican authorities in combating drug-related violence and emphasizes the importance of intelligence-led operations to dismantle such criminal enterprises. The ramifications of her arrest could potentially lead to further investigations and arrests within the drug trafficking hierarchy in the region.
