Note from Chivis: Reminiscent of the big holiday give-aways during the years when CDG and Zetas were together, the CDN faction of Zetas, conducted a holiday toy give out that included blankets in several areas of the Mexican border city of Nuevo Laredo, Tamaulipas. In 2009, on children’s day, Zetas and CDG together held a celebration in Acuna, Coahuila, that included food, entertainment and gifts (foto below) . It was the last of the holiday parties with the two cartels who split shortly after. Three years ago CDN picked up the practice once again.
Having used trucks of similar size to distribute donations in Tamps, I would estimate the gifts amount to around 30K USD.
