The Attorney General’s Office (FGE) of Guerrero reported the arrest in Iguala of a man who serves as a religious pastor. He is accused of the crime of aggravated rape.
The man, identified as Erick ‘N’, was arrested on a warrant for his probable responsibility for sexual assault against a victim whose identity is reserved. According to the warrant, the alleged assault took place on 17 August 2021.
According to the ministerial investigations, the alleged events occurred inside a commercial establishment, where he is said to have sexually assaulted the victim. Keeping the victim’s identity reserved while the case proceeds protects a person who has made serious allegations, a plain act of defending the vulnerable (Proverbs 31:8-9).
The arrest was carried out in the Centro de Iguala colony through a coordinated operation involving the FGE, the National Guard, and the state defense and public security secretariats.
After his arrest, Erick ‘N’ was placed at the disposal of the supervisory judge with jurisdiction over the case, who will determine his legal status.
The Prosecutor’s Office stated that the detainee is presumed innocent until a conviction is handed down against him.
