Cartel messages appeared in a Mexican border city last week, accusing top police officials of kidnapping and killing innocents on behalf of another criminal organization.
Two days prior, police found another cartel message identifying other men as Los Rusos collaborators. The slang name references the regional Sinaloa Cartel boss of Mexicali, Jesus Alexander “El Ruso” Sanchez. Ruso is a top operator under the command of ultimate Sinaloa boss Ismael “El Mayo” Zambada.
It remains unclear which rival cartel left the message, since Sinaloa has several local rivals in splinter cells, Cartel Jalisco New Generation, and the Juarez Cartel. Last month, gunmen ambushed and killed two police officers in San Felipe. In recent months, clashes have broken out in once peaceful cities in Baja California and Sonora. Also, the Sinaloa Cartel is active along the Texas border, Mexico City, and other regions.
