Mexican Drug Kingpin El Chapo Re-arrested. by omenka(m): 1:25pm On Jan 09, 2016 |
MEXICO Mexico recaptures fugitive drug kingpin El Chapo Sinaloa cartel boss, who had escaped from maximum-security prison six months ago, caught after shootout in home state. Mexican police have recaptured Joaquin Guzman six months after the fugitive drug kingpin's escape from prison. Guzman, the head of the powerful Sinaloa cartel, was Mexico's most-wanted fugitive. He had escaped from a maximum security prison six months ago. "Mission accomplished, we have him," Enrique Pena Nieto, Mexico's president, announced via Twitter on Friday. Guzman, also known as El Chapo, was caught after a shootout with security forces in Los Mochis, in his home state of Sinaloa, according to a federal official. The official said Guzman was taken alive and was not wounded. Five people were killed and one Mexican marine injured in the clash at a house. The Mexican navy said marines seized two armoured vehicles, eight rifles, a handgun, and a grenade launcher in the raid that recaptured the fugitive. "A few weeks ago there was a close call in his home state of Sinaloa, this morning not so lucky," Al Jazeera's Natasha Ghoneim, reporting from Ahuisculco in Mexico, said. "The Mexican government is saying that this morning military responded to a building in Sinaloa after someone compliant that armed men were holding up inside a building." Hours later, Guzman - wearing a dark shirt and sweatpants - was marched by marines into a military helicopter at Mexico City's international airport. In a statement, the US Drug Enforcement Agency said: "The capture of Joaquin 'Chapo' Guzman- Loera is a victory for the rule of law and the Mexican people and government. "It is further evidence of our two countries' resolve to ensure justice is served for families who have been plagued by Guzman-Loera's ruthless acts of violence." His prison escape in July was the second for Guzman in 15 years - and a major embarrassment for Pena Nieto. Escape stories Guzman was first captured in 1993 in Guatemala, but he escaped from a prison in western Mexico in 2001 by hiding in a laundry cart. In July 2015, he fled a maximum-security prison near Mexico City just 17 months after authorities captured him following a 13-year manhunt. He escaped through a 1.5km tunnel with a redesigned motorcycle on special tracks, emerging in a house outside the prison. Nieto had refused to hand Guzman over to the US, but Mexican authorities are now likely to extradite him there. www.aljazeera.com/news/2016/01/mexico-recaptures-notorious-druglord-el-chapo-160108183908621.html Cc: Mynd44, Lalasticlala.

The person who snitch better chew and swallow his sim card. BTW, I'm rooting for El Chapo Scofield to break free again. I guess I've watched too many movies. He reminds me of the serial escapist Steven Jay Russell sentenced to solitary confinement for 144 years, only having one free hour daily to shower and exercise to prevent him from escaping, because of the embarrassment his multiple but ingenius escapes caused the U.S govt. He's due to be released in 2140. You can read up on his story here: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steven_Jay_Russell Or watch the movie about him that has been banned in most countries of the world titled "I Love You Philip Morris". 2 Likes |

How does this guy even break out of jail?? He's committed so much atrocities, he shouldve long been given lethal injection. If a Nigerian did all these in South America or Asia, he'd long be dead, then how much more the number one drug cartel in the world. 1 Like |

Hand him over to the US and watch him say goodbye to life almost immediately... |
Re: Mexican Drug Kingpin El Chapo Re-arrested. by omenka(m): 7:47am On Jan 10, 2016 |
Chubhie:Exactly. And some folks around here said he could dismantle ISIL if it gets down to war. Dude looks like a common thief here. I doubt he'd be able to make it out this time, but at the same time, wouldn't completely dismiss what corrupt officials are capable of. |
Re: Mexican Drug Kingpin El Chapo Re-arrested. by omenka(m): 7:48am On Jan 10, 2016 |
patrickmuf:Exactly. If Al Capone couldn't make it out, I don't see how El Chapo can. |
Re: Mexican Drug Kingpin El Chapo Re-arrested. by Chubhie: 8:01am On Jan 10, 2016 |
omenka: I felt a lil bit disappointed cos I wasted time and effort to research about him and his operations after he read the riot act to ISIL. He's already a national embarrassment to the Mexican govt so I see noway out for him anymore. |

Mexico is as corrupt if not more corrupt than Nigeria so him escaping again soon won't make headlines. |
