In collaboration with the Spanish Guardia Civil, officers from the Federal Police Force of Mexico arrested the ETA member, Hilario Urbizu San Román, in Aguascalientes (Mexico) on Thursday under an International Arrest Warrant (IAW) issued by Central Criminal Investigation Court Nº1 of the Spanish National High Court through diplomatic channels.

This arrest stems from the excellent cooperation that exists between the Mexican and Spanish authorities during an operation carried out by the Spanish Guardia Civil, the Federal Police Force of Mexico and the Mexican Attorney General's Office (Spanish acronym: PGR) as part of the joint strategy in the fight against terrorism.
