Being a Mexican cartel kingpin pays really well. After a decade long manhunt, the elusive Joaquín “El Chapo” Guzmán was detained in Mazatlán, Mexico. Rated as the number one supplier of illegal drugs in the US, he even made the Forbes billionaire list.
In 2001 the drug kingpin escaped from a high-security Mexican prison in a laundry cart. Since then he has evaded authorities using his far reaching cartel network. The Sinaloa cartel is believed to be able to launder billions of dollars through numerous front companies protected by corrupt government officials, security forces and private industry.
El Chapo’s arrest forms part of a month long operation, which has led to the confiscation of 16 houses and four ranches that contained secret tunnels, and 43 vehicles, 19 of which were armoured.
