Mexico’s most wanted drug kingpin, better known as ‘El Mencho’, was killed by the Mexican forces on the 22nd of February. His death triggered chaos: highway blockades, gun battles, and a nationwide security alert.
Hailing from the western state of Michoacan, El Mencho’s rise to the top of one of the most feared cartels in Mexico, the Jalisco New Generation Cartel (CJNG), was meteoric.
So, who was El Mencho? How did CJNG rise? Which are the biggest and most powerful Mexican cartels? And, where do Mexican cartels acquire their firearms from?
We explore these and more on WION WideAngle, this week.
