### Natanael Cano Faces Trial for Bribery

Months after a viral video emerged showing singer Natanael Cano fleeing from municipal authorities in Sonora for speeding, the incident has led to legal consequences. According to the video, Cano, known for his hit “Pacas de Billetes,” handed over several bundles of cash to municipal police officers to avoid arrest on March 29. The act of accepting the money by the officers constitutes bribery, resulting in their suspension. However, the case remains open, and Cano has now been formally charged and is barred from leaving the country.

During his court appearance, Cano was protected by a legal injunction preventing his imprisonment but is required to sign in at a courthouse every two months and cannot leave Mexico, according to the Sonora Prosecutor’s Office. The singer, noted for his “corridos tumbados” style, is accused of speeding, engaging in a police chase, and committing bribery.

The Prosecutor’s Office detailed the incident, stating, “The suspect was driving a red, recent-model Dodge Charger without plates at high speed along José María Morelos Boulevard in Hermosillo when he was stopped by officers in an official Municipal Police unit.”

The Hermosillo Municipal Police had earlier issued a statement in March, responding to the video and photographs circulating on social media of Cano showing off driving at 284 kilometers per hour on his birthday, emphasizing their zero-tolerance policy towards corruption.
