MEXICO: Government Rejects Radio Report That It Favors Sinaloa Narcos.
LAHT/ A 4-month probe by NPR's John Burnett that claimed Mexico's government favored the Sinaloa drug gang in its fight against drug mobs has naturally been rejected. Spokesman Luis Estrada disputed the charge saying “This is not true. The federal government combats organized crime nationwide with full determination, and authorities have maintained support for state authorities to reduce the spaces and activities of all criminal gangs. In summary, the federal government has succeeded in weakening the command and operation structure of this cartel, not only in Sinaloa, but in all its networks nationwide,” he said.
