The recent arrest of Ismael "El Mayo" Zambada, a key leader of the Sinaloa Cartel, has thrown Mexico's political and criminal landscapes into turmoil. Zambada's capture, which took place on July 25, 2024, in El Paso, Texas, has led to widespread speculation and controversy, particularly due to a letter he released claiming that he was kidnapped rather than voluntarily surrendering. Zambada's letter implicates several high-profile figures, including Rubén Rocha Moya, the Governor of Sinaloa, and Héctor Melesio Cuén, a prominent politician who was recently murdered.
Zambada's letter suggests that he was ambushed when he believed he was meeting with Rocha Moya and Cuén, further complicating the situation. Governor Rocha Moya has strongly denied any involvement in Zambada's capture, insisting that he was not at the meeting and had no ties to the criminal activities in question. The governor's alibi—that he was on vacation at the time of Zambada's arrest—has drawn criticism, particularly given the timing of Cuén's murder, which some believe is linked to the cartel's internal conflicts.
President Andrés Manuel López Obrador has expressed support for Rocha Moya, urging caution and emphasizing the need for further investigation before drawing conclusions. However, the situation remains highly volatile, with ongoing speculation about Rocha Moya's potential connections to the cartel and the broader implications for the Mexican government.
This controversy is not just about the capture of a cartel leader; it also reflects deep-seated issues of corruption and political manipulation within Mexico, particularly in Sinaloa, where cartel influence is pervasive. The fallout from this situation could have far-reaching effects on Mexico's political stability and its ongoing battle against organized crime.
