Mexican businessman Víctor Manuel Álvarez Puga, husband of former TV host Inés Gómez Mont, was arrested on September 24, 2025, in Miami, Florida, by US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) due to his irregular immigration status.
Álvarez Puga had been on the run for four years from Mexican authorities, who issued an arrest warrant against him and Gómez Mont in September 2021 for alleged money laundering, organized crime, and embezzlement of public funds.
He is currently being held in a US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) detention center located south of Miami.
According to public records from the United States government, Álvarez was arrested as a result of his irregular immigration status and not directly for the crimes that kept him a fugitive in Mexico.
