Mexico's former public security secretary, Genaro Garcia Luna, was held without bond at a Texas jail on Tuesday, as he awaits trial for accepting bribes from the Sinaloa cartel in exchange for ignoring their criminal activity.
Garcia Luna, 51, was indicted on three counts of conspiring to traffic cocaine, and a false statements charge, according to The Associated Press.
A judge reportedly ordered him to be held in Texas until U.S. Marshals could arrange for his transfer to New York, where the infamous Joaquin "El Chapo" Guzman was tried in 2018.
