MEXICO CITY (AP) — Local police in the cartel-dominated city of Culiacan, Mexico have been pulled off the streets after the army seized their guns, officials announced Monday.

The move came just one day after about 1,500 residents of Culiacan, the capital of the northern state of Sinaloa, held a march Sunday though the city's downtown to demand peace after weeks in which cartel gunfights have killed dozens of people in and around the city.

But rather than announcing a stepped-up police presence, Ruben Rocha, the state’s governor, said Monday the entire 1,000-member municipal police force would not return to duty until they get their weapons back. Soldiers, state police and National Guard will take over patrolling until then.

Rocha said the seizure of the weapons for inspection of their permits and serial numbers was not a routine check, but rather was “exceptional,” and said “we hope it will end soon.”

Historically, the Mexican army has seized the weapons of local police forces they distrust, either because they suspect some local cops are working for drug gangs or because they suspect they are carrying unregistered, private sidearms that would make abuses harder to trace.

In 2018, the army seized the weapons from the municipal police in another state capital, Cuernavaca, to conduct a similar inspection. It said at the time the measure was aimed at ensuring “trustworthy security forces.”

Hundreds of army troops have been flown into Culiacan since fighting broke out between factions of the Sinaloa cartel after drug lords Ismael “El Mayo” Zambada and Joaquín Guzmán López were apprehended in the United States after they flew there in a small plane on July 25.

Zambada later claimed he was kidnapped and forced aboard the plane by Guzmán López, causing a violent battle between Zambada's faction and the “Chapitos” group lead by the sons of imprisoned drug lord Joaquin “El Chapo” Guzmán.

Sunday's protest was the first such march residents have dared to hold since factional fighting broke out following the events of July 25. Gunbattles have broken out even in downtown areas and upscale neighborhoods of Culiacan, and parents have been loathe to send their children to school since early September.

Schools in Culiacan have largely turned to holding classes online to avoid the near-daily shootings. On Monday, gunmen shot to death the leader of the local cattle rancher's union, Faustino Hernández, in broad daylight on a downtown street.

The civic group “Culiacan Valiente,” or Brave Culiacan, organized residents to dress in white Sunday as they carried banners reading “Take back our streets!”

“We want a return to in-class learning, but only if the safety of the schoolchildren is guaranteed,” the march organizers wrote in statement.

Rocha acknowledged the battle is between two cartel factions — he called them the “Chapitos” and the “Mayitos" — and pledged to fight both equally.

“There are two groups that are confronting each other here,” Rocha said of his state. “The authorities are here to face them down equally, both of them without exceptions.”

The two groups have taken to leaving strange factional markers on the dead bodies of their rivals: The “Chapitos” leave pizzas (derived from their group's collective moniker in Spanish, “La ChaPIZA”), while Zambada's supporters leave their trademark cowboy hats on dead bodies. The cowboy hats reflect the belief that Zambada's faction is more old-school than the young Guzmáns.

But the situation has gotten so out of control that cartel gunmen have taken to hijacking buses and trucks and burning them to block highways leading in and out of Culiacan.

Rocha acknowledged that he himself got caught for hours in traffic Friday after one such cartel blockade, after he went to the nearby resort city of Mazatlan to meet with outgoing President Andrés Manuel López Obrador. Rochas said he had to drive past the burning remains of one vehicle that had been torched.

On Monday, the governor promised to set up five “anti-blockade” squads with state police and soldiers on highways near Culiacan. But in acknowledgement that the squads wouldn't be able to stop the hijackings, he said they would at least be equipped with tanker trucks to puts out the flames and tow away the wreckage.

Even the local army commander, Gen. Francisco Leana Ojeda, acknowledged recently that “We want this to be over as soon as possible, but it doesn’t depend on us, it’s up to the warring groups to stop confronting each other.”

Evelyn se queda. No se va | Claudia Sheinbaum

Tercera Vía » ERNESTO | RIVERA RODRÍGUEZ Tenemos la certeza de que la guerra No construye paz. Evelyn Salgado. En el "país de nunca jamás" la presidenta Claudia Sheinbaum dio un jalón de orejas a los gobernadores, "Oh se ponen las pilas oh... no todo quedó en eso. Sólo eso? En tanto para acallar rumores sobre el futuro político de la gobernadora anfitriona Evelyn Cesia Salgado Pineda, expresó: "'ella no se mueve. Se queda". No sin expresar el trabajo que viene realizando frente al estado, y la permanente coordinación con la federación. Algo zumbaba en el ambiente de la 50 sesión de gobernadores cómo sí la espada de Damocles se cirniera sobre sus cabezas, o era el zumbido de la Operación Enjambre que tiene a todos sin dormir y nerviosos. El regaño fue para todos, los llamo a atender diariamente las mesas de Coordinación para la construcción de la paz...caminar juntos en la estrategia nacional de seguridad. Hubo alivio en la asamblea. Atiendan diario continuó, el gabinete de seguridad, porque es el lugar donde se definen las estrategias en la materia. A lo qué pareció añadir la gobernadora de Guerrero, al tomar la palabra:... Significa la confianza renovada en una estrategia qué visualiza a la seguridad, no cómo un tema partidista, sino como una cuestión de estado. Sin aludir, aludiendo. Este martes 10 llevó a cabo bajo un inusitado cerco de seguridad en la zona Diamante del icónico puerto turístico de Acapulco, la "50 Sesión Ordinaria de Seguridad Pública", ahí a su diestra la gobernadora de Guerrero, Evelyn Cesia Salgado Pineda, todos y cada de los gobernadores, y autoridades civiles y militares y la jefa de gobierno de la CDMX. El mago se quitó el sombrero. En éstas últimas semanas de gobierno, se han dado resultados contundentes que nos muestran que vamos por el camino correcto. Sin temor a traspié Omar Garcia Harfuch, Secretario de la SSPC, hay mucho que hacer, pero queremos seguir trabajando de la mano con ustedes, con las fiscalias de sus estados, con sus policías estatales y municipales, para incrementar las operaciones, aumentar las investigaciones y brindar mejores resultados a la ciudadanía. La realidad, la cruda realidad puede esperar; Sinaloa 500 muertos en tres meses. Colima el mayor número de femenicidios. Estado de México, Puebla y Guerrero con la segunda ciudad más violenta del pais, la ciudad anfitriona. Hace años por 17 campesinos asesinados en el Bado de Aguas Blancas, cayó el gobernador de Guerrero, Ruben Figueroa Alcocer. Hace 14 años por la desaparición de los 43 estudiantes de Ayotzinapa, fue desaforado Ángel Aguirre Rivero. Hoy con más de 500 asesinados, más de mil vehículos robados e incontables cifras negras en otros delitos, que desde hace tres meses grupos criminales tienen asolada la ciudad de Culiacán, capital del estado de Sinaloa, y toda la región, el gobernador Ruben Rocha Moya en su presentación en la reunión Nacional de gobernadores, fue recibido con aplausos. El gobernador de Sinaloa arribó Acapulco protegido, blindado por el Secretario de SSPC, Omar García Harfuch. Los tiempos y la política cambian. * La Solución Final Tocarán a su puerta jóvenes capacitados sobre la seguridad-inseguridad que se vive en su barrio, en su colonia, en su centro de trabajo, para llenar un cuestionario sobre ello. Acapulco es una de las ciudades elegidas para realizar casa por casa dicha encomienda. No tengo la menor duda que esta "Solución Final" será contestada: "Mire usted, aquí lo único inseguro, es la seguridad de qué no sabemos cuando tendremos agua... sin tanta tecnología ni IA". ) www.acapulcopress.com Read the full article

MEXICO CITY (AP) — Police, prosecutors and forensic examiners in the northern Mexico state of Sinaloa all conspired to cover up the killing of an opponent of the ruling-party state governor, using a blood-stained truck found at the crime scene, federal prosecutors said Sunday.

The bombshell statement by federal prosecutors backs up the version of imprisoned drug lord Ismael “El Mayo” Zambada. Zambada claims he was forced aboard an airplane on July 25 by another drug capo who flew them both to the United States and turned them in to U.S. authorities.

Zambada said in a letter in August that Héctor Cuén, an opponent of ruling-party Gov. Ruben Rocha, was murdered on July 25 at the same time and the same ranch where Zambada was kidnapped. Federal prosecutors revealed Sunday that Cuén’s blood was indeed found at the ranch.

Gov. Rocha has not responded publicly to Sunday’s statement by prosecutors, but he has said in the past that Cuén was killed by gunmen in a random botched robbery at a gasoline station miles away later that day, and Sinaloa state prosecutors showed security camera footage of the alleged attack.

But federal prosecutors quickly noted something was wrong with that video: post-mortem records showed Cuén’s body had four gunshot wounds, while only one gunshot can be heard on the security camera footage, and gas station employees said they didn’t hear any.

Cuén's bullet-ridden body could not help solve the riddle, because Sinaloa officials violated all murder investigation rules by allowing the body to be cremated almost immediately.

The gasoline station footage was later proved to be a falsification, but something about the white pickup truck seen in the footage was real: it had the blood of one of Zambada's trusted bodyguards in the cargo bed.

That implied that Sinaloa state police, crime scene investigators and prosecutors either found the bodyguard's corpse in the truck and got rid of the body, or at very least took the blood-stained vehicle from a crime scene to fake a gunpoint robbery at the gas station.

“All of the above confirms the police and prosecution investigation that has confirmed the presumed administrative and criminal responsibilities of Sinaloa police, detectives, forensic examiners and state prosecutors who have been exhaustively investigated regarding their participation in the death of Héctor (Cuén)” the federal Attorney General's Office said in a statement Sunday.

The news appears to complicate further the position of Gov. Rocha, who belongs to President Claudia Sheinbaum’s ruling Morena Party. Sheinbaum has strongly backed Rocha so far. But Rocha has done little or nothing to quell the bloody fighting that broke out between the rival factions of the two Sinaloa drug cartel capos that broke out after July 25.

Instead, Rocha has sought to downplay the gunbattles, killings, kidnappings and cartel roadblocks that have sprung around the state capital, Culiacan. On Thursday, hours before gunmen opened fire on the offices of a local newspaper, Gov. Rocha said “there is nothing to worry about” and “everything is under control.”

Rocha — a close associate of former president Andrés Manuel López Obrador, who left office Sept. 30 — has been implicated in the events of July 25 from the start, though he denies it.

Zambada has said that Joaquín Guzmán López — a leader of a rival cartel faction who he nonetheless trusted — had invited him to the meeting to help iron out the fierce political rivalry between Gov. Rocha and Cuén, who were feuding.

Zambada was famous for eluding capture for decades because of his incredibly tight, loyal and sophisticated personal security apparatus. But he said that on July 25, he left most of his security team behind and entered with only two bodyguards because he expected both Cuén and Gov. Rocha to be present.

The two bodyguards have not been heard from since.

The fact that Zambada would knowingly leave all his security behind to meet with the politicians suggests he viewed such a meeting as credible and feasible. The same goes for the idea that Zambada, as the leader of the oldest wing of the Sinaloa cartel, could act as an arbiter in the state’s political disputes.

Rocha has denied he knew of or attended the meeting where Zambada was abducted, claiming he had borrowed a businessman's private jet to fly to California that day. But while a flight record of that plane exists, Rocha has never shown the immigration documents he would have filed to enter the United States, leading to doubts that he was aboard the plane.

The perceived betrayal of El Mayo has led to fierce fighting between his followers, known as “Mayitos,” and the followers of Guzmán López, who — as one of the sons of imprisoned drug lord Joaquín “El Chapo” Gúzman — was a co-leader of the faction known as the “Chapitos.”
