**Fiscal Threatens Narcotics Officers Over Alleged Leak**
In a tense meeting, specialized narcotics prosecutor Juan Carlos Pelayo Heredia threatened his team over a suspected information leak, demanding adherence to protocols and warning of significant consequences for further breaches. Sources claim Pelayo, visibly agitated, emphasized the need for confidentiality, stating, “What we discuss here remains here. If anyone is uncomfortable with the current conditions, they’re free to leave.”
Pelayo, whose name has previously surfaced in controversial circumstances, including references on threatening banners around Tijuana, is under scrutiny once more following accusations on social media of demanding monthly bribes from narcotics officers. This recent development prompted an urgent meeting on February 18, where Pelayo displayed the social media post to his agents, expressing frustration over the alleged betrayal.
Witnesses reported Pelayo’s intent to identify and reassign those responsible for the leak. His speech, filled with expletives, underscored a zero-tolerance policy toward disloyalty and incompetence, asserting his willingness to make personnel changes until only trustworthy agents remain.

**Related Updates on Law Enforcement Allegations**
Recent investigations continue to probe into corruption within various law enforcement ranks across the region. In an unrelated case, authorities in another district revealed efforts to clamp down on officers suspected of similar misconduct following an internal audit. The audit uncovered discrepancies in financial records linked to narcotics operations, prompting a series of suspensions and ongoing inquiries into potential kickback schemes.
The public remains concerned about these reports, calling for greater transparency and accountability among high-ranking officials. These incidents, coupled with the recent allegations against Pelayo, contribute to increasing demands for reform and stricter oversight within local law enforcement agencies.
