The Michoacán Prosecutor's Office has arrested three individuals allegedly linked to the murder of Carlos Alberto Manzo Rodríguez.
The Michoacán Prosecutor's Office has made recent arrests of three individuals believed to be indirectly involved in the murder of Carlos Alberto Manzo Rodríguez. These arrests took place over the weekend and were confirmed by the state prosecutor, Carlos Torres Piña. The three suspects reportedly had connections to Alejandro Baruc N., also known as El Kaoz, who is currently facing criminal charges. The identities of these individuals have not been disclosed, as the investigation continues.
Carlos Torres Piña elaborated on the ongoing operations in Tarímbaro, emphasizing the coordinated actions being taken against organized crime in the area. He highlighted that these individuals are connected through their communication with Baruc, who is set to appear in court in early March. Baruc is known for his alleged role as a hitman and involvement in vehicle theft under the command of Jorge Armando N., known as El Licenciado.
The investigation into Carlos Manzo's murder, which took place on November 1, 2025, has been gaining momentum as these arrests unfold. The circumstances surrounding the murder are still under scrutiny, and the prosecutor's office is keen on unraveling the complete chain of command connected to organized crime in Michoacán. This case reflects broader issues concerning violence and crime associated with drug cartels in the region, necessitating continued law enforcement efforts to address these challenges.
