A Gulf Cartel leader and two other men will remain in custody for at least 40 more days after facing a federal judge.

Mexico’s Attorney General’s Office (PGR) reported that Gilberto Barragan-Balderas and the others have been arraigned in Mexico City.

Balderas, who went by the nickname “El Tocayo” or "The Name Twin," has been charged with organized crime, marijuana and firearms charges.

Federal police arrested Barragan-Balderas, Sergio Guerra-Castañon and Romeo Eduardo Mejia-Gonzalez in Reynosa on Friday.

Authorities believe Barragan-Balderas is the Gulf Cartel plaza boss for Miguel Aleman, which is located across the Rio Grande River from Roma, Texas.

Barragan-Balderas was on the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration’s (DEA) Most Wanted List where authorities had issued a $5 million dollar reward for his capture.

All three men remain in custody in Mexico City where prosecutors continue to work on their case against him.
