Jalisco cartel is the best armed in Mexico, warns the US Justice Department

The US Department of Justice identified the Jalisco Nueva Generación Cartel (CJNG), led by Nemesio Oseguera Cervantes, alias 'Mencho', as the "best-armed cartel in Mexico."

The statement was made after US authorities reported the charges and arrest warrants issued by a US Federal Court against Edgar Herrera Pardo, also known as 'El Caimán'; Carlos Lorenzo Hinojosa Guerrero, alias 'Cabo 96'; Edgar Pérez Villa, alias 'Cabo 89', and Israel Alejandro Vázquez-Vázquez, alias 'Cabo 50', alleged members of a criminal cell of the CJNG that operates in Baja California.
