El Universal – August 13, 2008 –
From within the Deputy Attorney's office of Specialized Investigation of Organized Crime (English: OFDI, Spanish: SIEDO), three soldiers, two senior officials and an agent served as a shield to this group of drug traffickers.
So far, six civil servants commissioned to combat organized crime have been arrested and detained for 40 days, to be under investigation for their alleged links with Beltran.
PGR (the office of the Attorney General of the Republic) Authorities confirmed to THE UNIVERSAL that among those arrested were Miguel Colorado Gonzalez, who serves as coordinator of technical services for SIEDO, and José Antonio Mejía, coordinator of the Federal Police Agents assigned to this area, in addition to the Federal agent Jorge Alberto Zavala.
Miguel Colorado Gonzalez was a person very close to former head of SIEDO, Noé Ramírez Mandujano, who is not linked to this case.
