The Jalisco Cartel – New Generation has taken responsibility for the brutal murder of three Colombians in the municipality of Puebla, Mexico. As one of Mexico’s most powerful and violent drug cartels, the Jalisco Cartel’s claim of responsibility for this heinous crime highlights the extent of its influence and control in the region.
The bodies of the three Colombians were discovered last week near a landfill in Puebla, wrapped in bags and accompanied by a chilling message from the cartel. In the message, the cartel justifies the murders as part of a “cleansing” operation against foreign criminals involved in various criminal activities in Puebla. The victims were specifically accused of involvement in drop loans and watch thefts, common crimes associated with organized crime in Mexico.
As the Jalisco Cartel – New Generation faces off against other rival gangs and foreign criminals in Mexico, violence and fear continue to rise. The murder is just another tragic example of the ongoing battle for power and control in Mexico’s drug war.
