Mexico’s most wanted man and the leader of the feared drug cartel Jalisco New Generation (CJNG) has been killed in a military operation to arrest him. Nemesio Ruben Oseguera Cervantes, also known as “El Mencho,” was wanted by US authorities, who offered a bounty of up to $15 million for information leading to his arrest or capture, according to media reports.
El Mencho was wounded in an operation to capture him on Sunday in Tapalpa, Jalisco, about a two-hour drive southwest of Guadalajara. He died while being flown to Mexico City, Mexico’s Defence Department said in a statement.
