Lourdes Yohana, Squatter in Abuelita Carlota’s Chalco Home, Arrested

The Attorney General’s Office of the State of Mexico (FGJEM), in coordination with its counterpart in Mexico City, arrested Lourdes Yohana “N” for her alleged involvement in the crime of home eviction committed against a woman identified as M.S.A., known as “Grandma Carlota,” at the Ex-Hacienda Guadalupe Housing Unit in Chalco on March 27.

The woman was arrested in the country’s capital and taken to the Texcoco Penitentiary Center, where she was placed before a judge who will determine her legal status.

What happened in the case of the eviction of Carlota “N”?

According to the investigation, Lourdes Yohana “N,” along with four other individuals identified as Víctor Heladio “N,” Esaú “N,” Justin “N,” and another woman, entered the victim’s home without authorization, claiming they had “rented it online.” M.S.A. was alerted by phone about what had happened at her home.

The Edomex Prosecutor’s Office collected security camera footage and conducted on-site investigations. The following day, investigators found the property locked with a chain and padlock, with no one present.

Two individuals involved were murdered.

During the course of the investigation, a video was released demonstrating the involvement of those involved. Later, Esaú “N” and Justin “N” were shot to death in front of the same disputed address.

State of Mexico authorities revealed that those involved, including Lourdes Yohana “N,” were part of the “October 22 Syndicate,” an organization under investigation for its alleged involvement in property crimes involving violent invasions of properties.
