Mexico’s most notorious cartel boss was located and killed after intelligence agencies were able to track down one of his lovers to his secluded resort compound, officials said Monday.
Mexico’s Defense Secretary Ricardo Trevilla said agents identified a man close to a girlfriend of New Generation Jalisco Cartel boss Nemesio “El Mencho” Oseguera Cervantes prior to Sunday’s raid.
The intelligence officers found that the woman was taken to Tapalpa, a mountainside getaway community in Jalisco where Oseguera and his men were located, Trevilla told reporters.
While the girlfriend eventually left the resort, El Mencho and his men remained holed up in the compound when the Mexican military deployed its special forces to take them out.
