Mexican law enforcement agencies have identified the hideout of one of the world's most dangerous drug lords following a large-scale operation. According to the Operative Information Center-OMM, intelligence services employed specialized tactics to track down Nemesio Ruben Oseguera Cervantes, better known by his alias "El Mencho," the leader of the Jalisco New Generation Cartel (CJNG).
According to the details of the operation, security forces conducted long-term surveillance on a woman with whom the drug lord maintained a close relationship. The movement patterns and meetings of the associate allowed authorities to pinpoint the exact location of one of the world's most wanted criminals. This breakthrough is considered one of the most significant steps in the history of Mexico's fight against powerful drug cartels, and investigations into further details are currently ongoing.
The Jalisco New Generation Cartel (CJNG) is recognized as one of the most violent and powerful criminal organizations in Mexico, with a significant influence on the global drug trade. El Mencho has been a primary target for both Mexican and United States authorities for years, with millions of dollars offered in rewards for information leading to his arrest. This operation underscores the increasing effectiveness of intelligence-led policing in dismantling the leadership structures of transnational organized crime groups.
