The saga of missing Canadian Malcom Madsen, who disappeared in Mexico in October 2018, took a turn this week with the arrest of the man’s former girlfriend. On Thursday, Ramos was ordered by a judge in Puerto Vallarta to remain in prison for up to a year while her lawyers prepare the case for the defence. In earlier statements to investigators after Madsen went missing, Ramos said she had done no wrong and had no knowledge of Madsen’s whereabouts. Local Puerto Vallarta media reports that Ramos was hiding out in a house north of Mexico City with a local businessman with whom she had a romantic relationship. After her arrest, Ramos was escorted by an agent from the attorney general’s office in Guadalajara to Puerto Vallarta, where she remains in jail awaiting trial, Loaiza said.
