In a second video, the wanted Los Blancos de Troya leader denies the killing during an ongoing search by federal and state forces.

Overview

  • He addresses President Claudia Sheinbaum and Security Secretary Omar García Harfuch, urging an investigation into the Bravo family.
  • Sepulveda accuses Jaime Bravo of collaborating with criminal groups and ferrying drug proceeds from the United States to Apatzingán in pesos, claims that are not independently verified.
