Federal and local security forces successfully captured Jesús Antonio “N”, known as “El Peli”, in the municipality of Mazatlán, marking a significant blow to logistics operations within the region.

Mexican security officials have confirmed the apprehension of Jesús Antonio “N”, widely recognized by the alias “El Peli”, during a coordinated operational sweep in the coastal city of Mazatlán, located in the State of Sinaloa, Mexico. The high-profile detention also included three additional individuals apprehended at the same location, according to official institutional statements released on Tuesday.

Federal authorities identified the primary suspect as a vital logistical coordinator for the faction known as “Los Chapitos”, operating under the umbrella of the Sinaloa Cartel. Investigators detailed that his responsibilities included managing supply chains, handling financial resources derived from illicit drug distribution, and involvement in targeted kidnappings across the region.

According to intelligence reports compiled by security cabinets, “El Peli” served directly under Genaro Aarón “N”, functioning as a primary instigator of localized violence and operational stability for the criminal organization in northwestern Mexico. The successful raid underscores ongoing strategies aimed at dismantling high-level financial and logistical networks operating within the municipality.

Community representatives and regional analysts have expressed measured optimism following the announcement, emphasizing the necessity of sustained institutional presence to ensure long-term stability. Officials reiterated their commitment to maintaining inter-agency cooperation to address regional security challenges comprehensively.
