His manager was arrested on Tuesday January 7 and placed in police custody. Isaac Steidl will be prosecuted for numerous offenses including “criminal conspiracy”, “aggravated pimping” or even “administration of an online platform to enable an illicit transaction by an organized gang”. The case will be followed by the National Jurisdiction for the Fight against Organized Crime (Junalco).
