He was detained while trying to pass through Sonora customs with 7.6 million pesos

Elements of the National Guard, in coordination with Mexico's National Customs Agency, arrested a person who intended to enter the country with more than seven million pesos in control, without the documentation that would prove its legal origin and possession. Mexico's National Customs Agency reported that the warrant was carried out when the elements observed a truck entering the national territory through the automated selection lane, which corresponded to "green light", that is, it was exempt from customs review. However, the personnel detected that the unit was traveling at the speed allowed in the area, so they made a full stop to carry out a preventive inspection at the San Luis Río Colorado border port's fiscal yard. Arrested while trying to pass with 7.6 MDP in checks As the driver was approached to explain the reason for his momentary arrest, the elements saw inside the vehicle, in the rest of the vehicle, that there were several checks with different denominations. The truck was inspected and around 24 checks were located for the approximate amount of 7 million 600 thousand pesos, without documentation to prove legal origin, possession or importation, so they arrested the motorist. The customs law in its ninth article states: "Any person who enters the national territory or leaves it and carries with him amounts in cash, in national or foreign checks, money orders or any other document receivable or a combination thereof, greater than the equivalent In the currency or currencies in question, ten thousand dollars of the United States of America, shall be obliged to declare it to the customs authorities, on the official forms approved by the Tax Administration Service ". The person was read by the rights card that assists persons in detention, and his record was registered in the National Registry of Detentions. Together with the vehicle and the checks, he was placed at the disposal of the delegation of the Attorney General's Office in the entity, to continue the corresponding investigations.
