Luis de Llano was released after serving a 15-hour administrative arrest imposed by a civil court in Mexico City in the case of Sasha Sokol. The detention occurred on September 2 in Polanco, and the producer left the San Fernando Administrative Sanctions Center without making statements to the press.
De Llano’s son commented that he was not well-rested, recalling that it was not a vacation spot. Originally, the producer was to serve two 15-hour arrests each, related to unheeded court orders, totaling up to 30 hours of possible deprivation of liberty.
The resolutions that led to his arrest were issued due to two failures: the first, his refusal to record and present a public apology to the court directed at Sokol; and the second, for failing to publish the summary of the sentence that confirmed his civil responsibility. This sentence was upheld by the Supreme Court of Justice of the Nation in June 2025.
De Llano was arrested at 6:13 PM on a street in the Polanco neighborhood, being transferred to the San Fernando Administrative Sanctions and Social Integration Center by elements of the Citizen Security Secretariat.
The complaint that gave rise to the case was filed for moral damages by Sokol, who reported having had a sexual abuse relationship with De Llano when she was 14 years old. This case has evolved from a revelation on social media in March 2022 into a civil lawsuit that has extended for more than three years.
Sokol’s legal team stated that the arrest orders were not surprising and arose after months of fines and requests ignored by the producer. According to the Civil Procedure Code for Mexico City, enforcement measures can include fines and detentions of up to 36 hours. If the non-compliance continues, De Llano’s behavior could be considered a criminal offense with a penalty of up to five years in prison, although the current detentions do not constitute a criminal conviction but a means to ensure compliance with a civil sentence.
