In an operation led by the Ministry of the Navy, in coordination with the Ministry of Security and Citizen Protection (SSPC), a facility used for drug production and an alleged organized crime encampment were shut down, following the raid on four properties in the municipality of Petatlán, Guerrero.
The facility was found to have the capacity to simultaneously produce methamphetamines, designer drugs known as “Tusi,” and synthetic opioids, which is significant compared to other clandestine laboratories that specialize in a single substance.
The installations were rendered unusable to prevent their reuse for illicit purposes, and investigations were continued. There is evidence linking these activities to Inés Omar Coronel Aispuro, the older brother of Emma Coronel Aispuro, wife of Joaquín Guzmán Loera, alias “El Chapo Guzmán,” a noted drug kingpin
It should be noted that Inés Coronel Aispuro, alias “Coronel,” is a member of the Chapitos group of the Pacific Cartel and has a criminal record from 2013, 2014, and 2015 for crimes against public health involving the production, storage, and transportation of marijuana, as well as illegally carrying a firearm.
The actions were carried out in accordance with the corresponding legal dispositions and are part of efforts to weaken the operational capabilities of organized crime.
