Gilda Lozoya Secures Limited Judicial Pause on Possible Arrest
A provisional suspension temporarily blocks any immediate detention and will remain in force only after a 29,000‑peso guarantee is paid.
Overview
- Gilda Susana Lozoya Austin filed a new juicio de amparo to learn whether an arrest warrant exists tied to investigation file FED/SEIDF/CGI‑CDMX/000017/2017.
- A judicial secretary granted a provisional suspension that limits actions to matters of liberty and disposition, meaning she cannot be immediately detained under that protection.
- The amparo judge set a five‑day deadline for Lozoya to pay a 29,000‑peso garantía for the suspension to stay effective and ordered her to appear before the relevant judges as required.
- The Fiscalía General de la República has an active probe into alleged association with Odebrecht bribery and whether Lozoya benefited from payments linked to her brother Emilio, and that investigation continues despite the suspension.
- The legal move uses a common Mexican remedy that can pause custodial acts while a federal investigation dating to 2017 proceeds, and the case connects to broader probes from the Agronitrogenados and Odebrecht scandals.
