Mexican television producer Luis de Llano has been detained for failing to comply with a ruling issued by Mexico’s Supreme Court of Justice (SCJN) in a case connected to singer and actress Sasha Sokol, according to a report from La Jornada.
De Llano and Sokol rose to fame together in the 1980s through the pop group Timbiriche, one of Mexico’s most successful youth music acts of the era. Their professional relationship later became the center of public scrutiny after Sokol spoke out about the power imbalance between them when she was a teenager and De Llano, decades older, held creative and managerial authority over the group.
That public reckoning eventually led to legal proceedings that reached Mexico’s highest court, which issued a binding order in the matter. According to the report, De Llano’s detention stems specifically from his alleged failure to meet the terms set out in that Supreme Court decision, though further details on the exact nature of the noncompliance were not immediately available.
The case has drawn significant attention in Mexico, both for its connection to two well-known figures in the entertainment industry and for the broader conversation it sparked around consent, age gaps, and accountability in the entertainment business.
