Diana Toro Díaz, identified by U.S. authorities as a financial operative for the Sinaloa Cartel, was arrested in Montreal, Canada, after living for years under a false identity.
The wife of Alejandro Flores Cacho—who has been identified as the primary coordinator of “narco-pilots” for the criminal group in question—was taken into custody in Canada pending extradition proceedings to the United States.
According to reports published in local media outlets such as *The Suburban* and *TVA Nouvelles*, the 44-year-old woman was detained last week at Montréal-Trudeau International Airport while attempting to enter Canada using forged documents.
Canadian authorities reported that Toro Díaz remains detained at the Laval Immigration Holding Centre, awaiting a decision from the Immigration and Refugee Board regarding her potential extradition to the United States. No dates have been confirmed for any hearings, nor has it been confirmed whether she will face charges in Canada. The Canada Border Services Agency is maintaining an open investigation into the concealment methods and use of false identities employed by the detainee.
The family had been living in Montreal for several years, where their children attended a high-profile private school and they resided in an affluent neighborhood frequented by Mexican and Latin American families.
