Mexican singer Alicia Villarreal has taken legal action against her husband, musician Cruz Martínez, for alleged domestic violence. Villarreal appeared at the Prosecutor’s Office for Feminicides and Crimes Against Women in Monterrey, Nuevo León, accompanied by her attorney, Claudia Ramírez, to formally ratify her complaint.
Seven Hours at the Prosecutor’s Office
Villarreal spent approximately seven hours at the office, providing detailed statements about the alleged incidents and answering investigators’ questions. The case has drawn widespread attention, sparking discussions about domestic violence and women’s rights in Mexico.
Upon leaving the facility, Villarreal briefly addressed the media, expressing gratitude for the support she has received.
“I appreciate you waiting so many hours. I also thank the authorities for their time… This has been truly difficult,” the singer stated.
A Legal Battle in the Public Eye
The complaint marks a significant moment in Villarreal’s personal life, as she has been married to Cruz Martínez, a well-known music producer and former member of Kumbia Kings, for nearly two decades.
Neither Martínez nor his legal representatives have made any public statements regarding the allegations. However, given the high-profile nature of the case, further legal developments are expected in the coming days.
Raising Awareness on Domestic Violence
Villarreal’s case highlights the broader issue of domestic violence, which remains a serious problem in Mexico and worldwide. Women’s rights activists and public figures have voiced support for the singer, emphasizing the importance of speaking out and seeking justice.
Authorities have yet to determine the next legal steps, but Villarreal’s decision to go public with her case sends a powerful message about the importance of holding perpetrators accountable.
