The Mexican army announced the arrest of Carlos “N”, better known as “Don Carlos”, who is considered one of the logistics operators of the Jalisco New Generation Cartel (CJNG) , in Puerto Vallarta, Jalisco.

For months, the Mexican authorities have been trying to capture this individual who received direct orders from Nemesio Oseguera Cervantes, “El Mencho”. Thus, with the help of the National Intelligence Center, the Secretary of Defense (Sedena) managed to locate him in a luxury residence in the Marina Vallarta subdivision of Puerto Vallarta.

More than one hundred military elements and personnel from the Attorney General’s Office (FGR), with the support of armed units and helicopters, carried out an operation.

“Don Carlos” is suspected of being in charge of the supply of weapons and vehicles for the CJNG cells in Puerto Vallarta and the central zone of the state of Jalisco, sources from the federal security cabinet reported.

In the operation, they were insured a luxury vehicle, weapons and drugs. “Don Carlos” was transferred to the facilities of the Special Prosecutor for Organized Crime in Mexico City.

According to local media, the military forces are deployed in Jalisco, alert to a possible reaction from the CJNG.
