Moreno was also given a security certificate to inform him of the procedures in order to guarantee his safety and personal integrity.
The former prosecutor arrived in the country in early December, deported from the United States after serving a sentence there for money laundering for receiving in that country an advance of a bribe from ex-governor Alejandro Lyons.
Although Moreno had asked to be held in the Police Higher Education Center (Cespo) of the Police, arguing that his life was in danger in an ordinary prison, the Police did not receive him there.

Moreno was sentenced by the Supreme Court to 4 years and 10 months in prison, for having been part of the ‘toga cartel’, a corruption network that operated within the high court, and in which he, along with former magistrates of that corporation, favored individuals and politicians who had legal proceedings in exchange for sums of money.
