A woman and a man of Cuban origin were detained in the municipality of Tizayuca, in the Mexican state of Hidalgo, after the police carried out an operation in several nightclubs in the area.
According to a report by Milenio, the Cubans "were detained in Hidalgo during operations to combat drug dealing."
There were three simultaneous operations carried out by the Hidalgo State Public Security Secretariat (SSPH), in which six people were arrested, including the two Cubans, and more than 300 doses of alleged drugs were seized, as reported by the news outlet Hidalgo News.
The entity identified those involved in these events by their initials, making it impossible to determine the names of the individuals involved. However, the mentioned media outlet specifies that they are a man and a woman of Cuban nationality named M. F. M. and M. A. R.
At the moment, it is only known that authorities found 312 doses of synthetic drugs, known as "crystal".
The individuals involved and the seized items were handed over to the corresponding Public Prosecutor's Office agent, as mentioned in the information.
It will be this entity that will determine your legal status. Meanwhile, investigations continue to clarify the facts.
During the last few weeks, migration operations and raids on bars and nightclubs have intensified in Hidalgo.
Last week, in the same municipality, 14 immigrants of different nationalities, including Cubans, were detained for not being able to prove their legal status in the country, reported the Secretariat of Citizen Security of Tizayuca.
The statement did not specify the number of Cubans detained in the immigration sweep conducted by local authorities in housing developments and residential units in the Mexican municipality.
The governmental agency indicated that this control is part of "strategies focused on preventing violence and crime" in the municipality and was carried out "in strict adherence to human rights".
