Abduction of Mexican Drug Lord's Son Could Unleash Violence


A "gutsy" move by a rising Mexican drug cartel to abduct a son of imprisoned drug lord Joaquin "El Chapo" Guzman is raising alarms of a possible wave of bloodshed as it challenges his Sinaloa Cartel. He said the kidnappers were from the rival Jalisco New Generation cartel. In 2009, he was indicted on U.S. drug trafficking charges in Chicago along with his father and other Sinaloa cartel leaders. In 2012, the U.S. Treasury Department designated him under the Foreign Narcotics Kingpin Designation Act as assisting his father in drug trafficking. That same year, Mexican marines mistakenly arrested a used car salesman and presented him to the press as Jesus Alfredo.
