alexander garciaregional Mexican singer artistically known as ‘Ghost’, released a song titled ‘Los Chapos’, just one day after the arrest of Ovidio Guzmán.
The interpreter announced through his social networks a preview of said topic. In the stories that he shared through his Instagram account ‘El Fantasma’, he pointed out that the topic was aimed at Arturo Beltran Leyva, leader of the Beltrán Leyva Cartel, who died in 2009 in a confrontation between the Mexican army and members of his criminal group.
What does the narcocorrido of ‘Los Chapos’ say?
In a reel published on Instagram, Alexander García interprets a fragment of the song, whose central theme is the patrol that the cartel carries out in various territories.
He also points out the “clothing” and the type of weapons that the members of the criminal group use in the rounds to “take care of the enemies,” such as rifles, scarves to cover their faces, and armored trucks.
It should be noted that during the interpretation of this advance, ‘El Fantasma’ wore a cap with the portraits of some of the members of the Beltrán Leyva, among which stand out Alfredo, Arturo, Carlos and Hector.
The relationship between the organized crime cells between the Beltrán Leyva and ‘El Chapo’ Guzman broke up in 2008, however for several years they collaborated very closely.
Second arrest of Ovidio Guzmán in Culiacán
On the morning of January 5, military authorities unofficially reported that Ovidio Guzmán had been detained for the second time.
Hours later, Luis Cresencio Sandoval, head of the National Defense Secretariat (Sedena), confirmed the recapture of Joaquín ‘El Chapo’ Guzmán’s son.
At a press conference, Sandoval announced that Ovidio’s transfer to Mexico City had been finalized and mentioned that the trip was made on a Mexican Air Force aircraft.
During the hours prior to the arrest this Thursday, there were 19 blockades in Culiacán, burning cars, shootings and shots at a commercial plane at the municipality’s International Airport.
Presumably, the actions were organized by alleged members of organized crime, who sought to put pressure on the authorities and to avoid the arrest of Ovidio Guzmán.
