Mexico crime: Alleged security chief for El Chapo's sons detained
Mexico’s National Guard has arrested the alleged security chief of a faction of the Sinaloa cartel, Néstor Isidro Pérez Salas, also known as “El Nini”.
“El Nini” is accused of leading a ruthless group of bodyguards providing protection for the sons of Joaquín “El Chapo” Guzmán. The sons, known as “Chapitos” (little Chapos), rose to lead a faction of the cartel after their father was jailed.
The US had offered $3m (£2.4m) for information leading to his capture. He is wanted there on drug trafficking and weapons charges.
