Resendiz Martinez was detained on suspicion of participating in organized crime and drug trafficking. He is accused of tipping off drug traffickers about raids in return for money, and engaging in extreme acts of brutality.

Prosecutors said an investigation into Resendiz Martinez revealed a gun that may have been used in the Jan. 14 killing of opposition politician Jaime Meraz Martinez. Meraz Martinez's wife, daughter-in-law and an employee of the opposition were also killed in the attack.

Tests were being done on the weapon to determine if it was used in any of the killings. Meraz Martinez, 63, was a former lawmaker and adviser to the left-leaning opposition Democratic Revolution Party and ran a business.
