Overview
- Federal forces moved Mario Lindoro Elenes (“Don Mario”) and Mario Alfredo Lindoro Navidad (“El 7”) to the Puente Grande federal prison after their capture in Zapopan.
- Raids on two Zapopan properties yielded bags of drugs, four handguns, magazines and rounds, two SUVs, a high-end car, a motorcycle, phones, electronics and cash.
- Authorities identify both detainees as alleged financial operators for Los Chapitos, facing organized crime, restricted-weapons and narcotics charges pending initial hearings.
- In a separate case, a federal judge sentenced César Osvaldo Toledo Rodríguez (“El Valdo”) to 20 years for directing fentanyl logistics tied to the faction.
- The moves follow the Mexico City killing of Óscar Noé Medina (“El Panu”), described as Iván Archivaldo Guzmán’s security chief, while Iván remains a U.S.-indicted fugitive with DEA rewards offered.
