Adrián Vasquez Lagunes has been in jail near Tijuana, northern Mexico, since September 2012 when police arbitrarily arrested and tortured him in order to accuse him of drug-related crimes. All the evidence against him has been obtained through undue process. Following a legal challenge the prosecutors have a matter of days to respond and potentially drop the charges against Adrián allowing for his release.
