Members of the Jalisco New Generation Cartel address the population of Michoacan, to clarify that they seek to restore peace within the state, and go against criminal groups that charge fees to traders, farmers and businessmen.

- audio message at link -

Good morning or good afternoon. Through this medium I direct myself to all the citizens of the beautiful state of Michoacán. To let you know that we are going all out against El Migueladas, Los Viagras, and El Tena. According to them, they are for the peace of Michoacán. I believe that those who charge fees and don’t allow merchants, businessmen, and farmers to work. They are never looking out for the peace of the people. I never get involved with businessmen, merchants, and farmers.

On the contrary, I am here to support low-income citizens. And I have demonstrated this wherever I am in charge. The boss wants everyone to know this. And if I say this comes directly from the boss, it is because I am the boss. My family has nothing to do with my cartel. Let me remind everyone that I came to fight against Los Zetas and the La Familia Michoacána. Who at the time wanted to extort citizens with charging fees. I am not against the citizens. I am with the people. And I want peace for Michoacán.

Potential allies uploaded a statement to social networks where they asked me to join or make peace with groups that are against El Migueladas, Los Viagras, and El Tena. I would like to do this if they are open to dialogue and can comply in order to have a Michoacan like before when yours truly was there. When farmers, merchants, and businessmen were not bothered. I am here to achieve peace for the state of Michoacan.

Interesting article on "El Mencho" which may or may not be true:

The story of "El Mencho", one of the most wanted drug traffickers

Nemesio Oseguera Cervantes, who is over 50 years old, has reached the pinnacle of his criminal career. Identified as the leader of the Jalisco Cartel - New Generation, Oseguera, known as El Mencho, became the most wanted man in Mexico and the United States.

He is the second most wanted Mexican in the United States. The first is Rafael Caro Quintero, El Narco de Narcos, for the murder of Enrique Kiki Camarena, a former U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration agent. But immediately afterward, on the list of the most wanted, is the face of Nemesio Oseguera, El Mencho, leader of CJNG.

The story of Oseguera Cervantes is extraordinary because the vast majority of Mexican narcos of his generation have been imprisoned or have died violently. According to the U.S. Department of Justice's indictment, El Mencho has led CJNG - or its embryonic version - at least since 2000 and has managed to expand it to most states in Mexico and several cities in the United States.

He took his first steps in the narcotics business, however, much earlier. In Naranjo de Chila - a town in southeastern Michoacán - Nemesio Oseguera Cervantes was born on July 17, 1966, one of six brothers from an avocado-growing family. It is said that he was baptized with the name of Rubén and he was called Nemesio in honor of his godfather.
