A drug cartel queenpin dubbed 'La Gorda' - 'The Fat Lady' - has finally been caught after the brutal death of her rival.

Beatriz Sánchez Martínez, a leader within the Tláhuac Cartel based in Mexico, was taken down by police in a huge bust which also saw authorities seize a sea of narcotics, a shotgun and other valuables. This surprise takedown came three months after a rival gang leader, known as 'Aunt Fany', was found dead inside her vehicle. The crime boss' body was savagely covered in bullet wounds. Police revealed the two gangs had been clashing over drug sales points in their controlled areas.
