Continued Pursuit of Drug Lord Zambada

The detention of Mayo Zambada, one of the most important leaders of Mexican drug trafficking, remains shrouded in mystery seven months after his capture. Despite the demands from the Mexican government, U.S. authorities have yet to clarify the events.

Security Secretary Omar García Harfuch ruled out any operation to capture Iván Archivaldo, son of Joaquín Guzmán Loera. He indicated that an extradition procedure had been initiated with U.S. authorities and that they were awaiting a response.

Attorney General of the Republic, Alejandro Gertz Manero, reported that the Mexican government requested the extradition of Mayo Zambada since Joe Biden's administration, without receiving a response so far. He stated that recent operations had specific objectives and were successful.

Gertz Manero mentioned that a constant weakening of criminal organizations in Mexico has been observed, including groups such as 'Los Chapitos' and 'Los Mayos.' Arrests and seizures of illegal substances have been carried out in various operations.

In other news, during the afternoon, the detention of a person identified as Inzunza was recorded, followed by the capture of 'El 200' during the night.
