Feminicidio de Carolina Flores: así fue cómo México alertó a Venezuela sobre la huida de Érika “N”

After the arrest of Érika “N” in Caracas, Venezuela, possible details of the international operation that resulted from the femicide of her daughter-in-law, Carolina Flores, in Mexico City on April 15 have been revealed. According to Infobae, the investigation indicates that the main suspect – who was filmed shooting the former beauty queen – allegedly left Mexico just one day after the crime, which triggered an alert from Mexican authorities to their Venezuelan counterparts. According to statements made by a correspondent for the media outlet N+, Mexican authorities allegedly notified Venezuela unofficially about the case before the corresponding orders were issued. The notice reportedly included that Erika “N”, sixty-three years old, might enter Venezuelan territory and requested her preventive detention while the proceedings for Flores' murder advanced. The escape route of the alleged femicide first stopped in Panama and then she moved to Venezuela, where she was arrested on April 29. Mexico reportedly alerted Venezuela before Interpol's red notice. According to N+ correspondent in Venezuela, Norberto Mazza, Mexican authorities allegedly used informal channels with Interpol to anticipate the suspect's possible entry. This coordination allegedly allowed Venezuelan police to know in advance who the wanted person was and why she was required.
