The Attorney General’s Office of the State of Zacatecas reported this Wednesday that convictions have been obtained against Perla “N” and Juan “N”, who were found guilty of the crimes of aggravated kidnapping, criminal association and attacks against the security of the community. Both will face a sentence of 1,416 years in prison, after an oral trial in which they were held responsible for the death of 10 people.
The sentence is one of the most severe imposed in the state in recent years.

The events occurred on January 6, 2022, when the victims were kidnapped and subsequently murdered by those now convicted.
The bodies of the victims were abandoned in a vehicle, which was left in the Plaza de Armas, in the Historic Center of the Zacatecan capital, an act that shocked the local community and attracted national attention.
Thanks to the investigative work of the authorities, Perla “N” and Juan “N” were captured and brought to justice. After the legal process that culminated in an oral trial, the historic sentence was handed down.
In addition to the prison sentence, a fine of more than 23 million pesos was imposed, which corresponds to the harm caused to the victims. Likewise, the confiscation of two vehicles used in the commission of the crime was ordered.
