They are orders from above the Chapitos. Hey, we are not playing, it is not a game, ”says a men allegedly a member of the criminal cell led by the sons of Joaquín “El Chapo” Guzmán.
The recording was one of several that were broadcast on social networks about “justícers”, who on behalf of The Chapitos incited, under his own methods, for people to stay at home. According to the Mexican government, these measures took place from April 12 to 18 in the capital of Sinaloa, while in the municipality of Los Mochis they were registered from April 19 to 25.
The events occurred a few days after the daughter of the founder of the Sinaloa Cartel, Alejandrina Gissele Guzmán provide pantries to seniors. The deliveries were carried out in the area metropolitan of Guadalajara, Jalisco. The distribution dynamic consisted of sending a message to WhatsApp or through Facebook requesting personal help.
The supplies to cope with the quarantine were packed in boxes with well-kept, sober designs, with the face of “El Chapo” and the company’s web address.
Julio Campos, CEO of the brand, mentioned that with these actions, in addition to helping, they sought that people no longer point to the brand as part of the Sinaloa Cartel or as a hallmark of organized crime.
Other regions in which restrictive measures were registered by organized crime groups were Iguala, Guerrero, with mandatory curfews; Pentatlán, Guerrero, where threats to doctors were reported; Tuxpan Veracruz, by the Shadow Group who was intimidated by staying at home and finally in Santiago Ixcuintla, Nayarit, where the Jalisco Nueva Generación Cartel was involved in the collection of taxes.
