Suspicions fall on the Sinaloa Cartel
The controversial recording contained the legend MZ. According to journalist Rubí Bobadilla from The reporterthe letters allude to a faction of the Sinaloa Cartel belonging to drug lord Ismael “el Mayo” Zambadaa former associate of Joaquin “El Chapo” Guzman.
The Sinaloa Cartel is in a territorial fight with the Jalisco Nueva Generación Cartel (CJNG) and it is believed that the shocking kidnapping of the five young people would have been ordered by Mayo Zambada to send a warning to the rival cartel.
According to this hypothesis, it would be a response to a similar crime attributed to the Nueva Generación cartel that took place in February 2022 in Zacatecas. On that occasion they had also kidnapped five young people, whose bodies were abandoned on a road.
“At that time a video was released in which presumed members of ‘Operation MZ’ blamed the CJNG for said crime. According to the shared images, this time it would have been the other way around,” the journalist reasoned.
