Overview
- A judge on Saturday, July 4 linked Julián “N” (El Chayanne) and Maricarmen “N” (La Patrona) to criminal proceedings for alleged narcomenudeo and ordered them held in preventive detention.
- Authorities say the investigation began after the two were detained by SSC officers on June 27 in Santa María Aztahuacán when police found various doses of drugs on them.
- At an initial hearing on July 3 the Ministerio Público presented police reports, witness interviews and expert reports that the court considered sufficient to open a formal prosecution.
- The Fiscalía CDMX says intelligence work identified the pair as probable members of the local network known as Los Madame and that investigators have one month to close complementary inquiries.
- Previous reporting links the group to earlier 2025 operations in Iztapalapa that produced multiple arrests and seizures, a pattern officials cite as part of a sustained effort to disrupt local retail drug sales and improve neighborhood safety.
