'Mexican cartels target Spanish cannabis cultivation'
June 5, 2022

Spanish police say they dismantled a criminal network last week that dealt and laundered various drugs in Spain, Portugal, Mexico and Switzerland. According to the Spaniards, the investigation shows that Mexican cartels are trying to gain a foothold in organized cannabis cultivation in Spain. More than 200 officers took part in the operation and 24 people were arrested. Searches have been carried out in thirteen places in the Spanish provinces of Madrid and Guadalajara.


Submachine guns
The investigation led to the seizure of 1,000 kilograms of marijuana buds and 37 kilograms of cocaine. Also seized were two cocaine laundries, ten firearms (three submachine guns and seven pistols), and luxury goods worth more than six million euros, including 17 expensive cars.

The organization had set up a structure of companies in Spain, Colombia, Switzerland and Portugal, partly to launder money from criminal activities.

Mexicans
The investigation began at the end of 2020 when the Madrid detectives discovered several Mexicans from a family with criminal connections from Sinaloa settled in luxury houses in the city. The investigation found that these Mexicans visited large marijuana plantations in the province of Guadalajara. The Mexican family is said to have brought and laundered more than ten million euros in cash and gold to Spain, investing in real estate and luxury goods.

CBD oil
In Spain, the Mexicans established contacts with criminals from Spain and other European countries. They also set up companies in Spain, Portugal and Switzerland for the legal exploitation of cannabis, namely the production of CBD oil, and for laundering purposes.

Weed and packages of cocaine paste were sold to, among others, Dutch, Chinese and people from Croatia.

37 kilos of cocaine were found in a cocaine laboratory.

European drug agency: concerns about Mexican crime
June 14, 2022

The increasing activity of Mexican criminals in the Netherlands and Belgium is worrying, writes the European drug institute EMCDDA. In the two neighboring countries, criminal organizations produce synthetic drugs such as crystal meth in collaboration with Mexican “cooks” or Mexican know-how.

Industrial scale
The EMCDDA also notes that there is no incidental involvement of Mexicans, but that ' Mexican criminal organizations' are increasingly active in Europe.

The European drug agency writes in its annual report 2022 that methamphetamine is produced in Europe on an 'industrial scale'. Small-scale labs seem to be replaced by labs that produce on a much larger scale, for export.

Afghanistan
Methamphetamine use in Europe has traditionally been concentrated in the Czech Republic and later in Slovakia. Crystal meth is also used in the Baltic states. Slightly more would now be used in other European countries as well.

The EMCDDA suspects that Europe is now playing a greater role in the production of crystal meth on a global scale. There are also indications that production in Afghanistan is increasing, with it coming to Turkey via the heroin smuggling route.

In Afghanistan, one of the raw materials for meth is widely available through the cultivation of ephedra, from which ephedrine can be extracted.

Edgar (La Barbie) Valdez has been whisked into the Witness Protection Program after 12 years of incarceration and will testify for federal prosecutors in an upcoming series of corruption cases against former Mexican officials, per sources. “La Barbie” vanished from the BOP website late last month.

Most of Valdez’s cooperation has had to do with corruption within the Mexican government under former Mexican President Felipe Calderon. He’s expected to be a star witness at the upcoming drug trial of Genero Garcia Luna, Mexico’s top security officer in Calderon’s administration, who was arrested by the DEA in 2019.

n Mexico, a brother of the fugitive drug lord “El Mencho” was arrested on Tuesday morning. It's Antonio Oseguera Cervantes. He is the brother of Nemesio Oseguera Cervantes, aka El Mencho , who is leader of the Cartel Jalisco Nueva Generación (CJNG).

Antonio Oseguera Cervantes was arrested in the state of Jalisco by units of the Mexican army in cooperation with the national intelligence service. A number of weapons and two cars have been seized, as well as a package of cocaine. He has been handed over to the Ministry of Security Affairs, which, together with the Public Prosecutor's Office, is responsible for fighting organized crime in Mexico.

According to Sedena , the Defense Ministry, Oseguera was involved in money laundering, buying large quantities of weapons and coordinating violent attacks against rival groups, as well as international drug trafficking. The paramilitary branch of the CJNG is very well organized and armed.

Next to the criminal network called the Sinaloa cartel, CJNG is currently the most influential group in Mexico.

Violence has broken out.
Cars were set on fire and residents were carjacked by alleged cartel members in the city of Culiacan in Sinaloa province on Wednesday night and into Thursday. Authorities have not said what sparked the violence, but such actions sometimes occur following the arrest of a cartel member.

Fighting breaks out in Mexico after cartel boss El Chapo's son is arrested

Fighting broke out in the western Mexican city of Culiacán between the Sinaloa cartel and the National Guard. The unrest follows the arrest of Ovidio Guzmán, a son of former Sinaloa cartel boss Joaquín "El Chapo" Guzmán. There are shootings in the streets and gunmen are trying to take control of the city's airport.

Cartel members steal cars, buses and trucks and set them on fire to block roads. A passenger plane was also shot at Culiacán airport. No one would have been injured. Local and national authorities are warning everyone to stay indoors.

When Ovidio was arrested three years ago, the cartel caused so much unrest that the Mexican president decided to let him go again. That happened after gunfights broke out between the National Guard and members of the cartel.

In today's operation, residents of Culiacán were called in advance to stay indoors. Schools and government buildings also had to keep their doors closed. The city's airport was closed by the military.

Ovidio Guzmán is accused of drug trafficking by the United States. The country wants him extradited so that he can be tried there. That also happened to his father in 2017, who is now imprisoned for life in the highest security prison in the US in Colorado.

Architect of Mexico's war on drugs on trial in U.S. for trafficking

Genaro Garcia Luna accused of taking millions of dollars to allow Sinaloa cartel to smuggle cocaine to United States

A once-powerful Mexican government minister who oversaw his country's war on drug trafficking goes on trial in New York on Tuesday, himself charged with facilitating the smuggling of narcotics.

Genaro Garcia Luna is accused of taking huge scraps to allow the notorious Sinaloa cartel to smuggle cocaine when he was public security minister during Felipe Calderon's 2006-2012 presidency.

The 54-year-old is the highest-ranking Mexican official to be charged in New York federal prosecutors' extensive pursuit of alleged drug traffickers from Central and South America and their ministerial accomplishments.

Ex-Mexican drug lord Joaquin "El Chapo" Guzman, who headed Sinaloa, is currently serving a life sentence in the United States after being convicted by a jury in Brooklyn in 2019.

Garcia Luna was detained in Texas in December 2019. He has pleaded not guilty to five counts that carry possible sentences of between 10 years and life in prison.

U.S. prosecutors accuse Garcia Luna of accepting millions of dollars in scraps to look the other way as Guzman's cartel shipped tons of drugs into the United States between 2001 and 2012.

Two other high-profile Latin American drug cases are taking place at the same district court in New York - Colombian drug trafficker Dario Antonio Úsuga David is waiting for his trial and former Honduran president Juan Orlando Hernández has denied drug trafficking charges filed by prosecutors in Manhattan.
