Why was singer Natanael Cano arrested? This is what many of the Mexican’s fans are wondering. Here we tell you the details.
The legal process of Mexican singer Natanael Cano, accused of bribery, has generated great interest among his fans and the general public, who are seeking to understand why he was arrested and the implications of the crime for which he is being prosecuted.
All this was revealed in a statement published by the Attorney General’s Office of the State of Sonora, Mexico, which announced Cano’s indictment.
Why was Natanael Cano arrested?
On March 29, Hermosillo Municipal Police stopped Cano while he was speeding on José María Morelos Boulevard.
Authorities said the singer was driving a Dodge Charger without license plates and, upon being stopped, tried to bribe officers to let him continue without penalty.
This action triggered a chase, as Cano accelerated his vehicle again, evading municipal patrols.
Consequences faced by the singer
After the incident, the authorities summoned Natanael Cano to a hearing, where he was charged with the crime of bribery.
This means he cannot leave the country without a court order and must regularly appear in court to sign his name. Although the singer obtained an injunction to avoid arrest, he still faces significant restrictions on his freedom of movement.

What does it mean to be linked to a bribery trial?
Bribery is a crime that consists of offering or giving money to a public official to perform or refrain from performing an act for the benefit of the offeror. In this case, Cano is accused of trying to bribe the police officers who arrested him.
Being bound over for trial means that the judge has found sufficient evidence for the case to proceed to trial, although this does not imply a finding of guilt at this stage.
The case of Natanael Cano is still developing, and the progress of the judicial process will determine the legal consequences he will face in the coming months.
