José Antonio Yépez Ortiz, “El Marro” , is losing control of its financial and operational structure; he does not have the resources to operate, his accounts have been frozen and his ability to bribe authorities, pay hired assassins and buy off people from different regions of Guanajuato are practically exhausted.
Federal and state authorities confirmed to MILENIO that the offensive against “El Marro” has not stopped and, through intercepted communications, they have corroborated that the main operators of the Santa Rosa de Lima cartel are defecting, leaving the criminal leader isolated and vulnerable.
The Financial Intelligence Unit (FIU) keeps frozen 35,499,486.73 Pesos of the cartel led by “El Marro” -identified as a generator of violence and fuel theft in Guanajuato and “the King of Huachicoleo”, money with which it paid protection and thus evade the authorities .
Of these accounts, the FIU froze, by direct nominees, 13,229, 192.38 Pesos, following a request to the National Banking and Securities Commission, for being linked to “El Marro” , his wife and his girlfriend; Another 22.7 million pesos were for movements of third parties, people who are related to the cartel.
With the Operation Golpe de Timón -which began in the first week of March, under the responsibility of the state government and with the support of the Navy- 14 properties of real estate, 129 vehicles, 28 long weapons, 18 handguns and two grenades have been confiscated from the cartel.
In addition, 62 people have been arrested or killed, including a municipal policeman from Irapuato, who provided information to the cartel, as well as operators, distributors and drivers, most of them with arrest warrants for homicide and kidnapping.
Also on June 19 Giovanny Martinez was killed in a confrontation with federal agents in Celaya, one of the operators of “El Marro” .
Among the buildings -where arms, vehicles, jewelry and drugs have also been found- La Fortaleza stands out , a property measuring 85 by 87 square meters, with 3 meter high walls and with all the luxuries for the capo and his family.
The residence has a pool, games, palapa and palm trees, two statues of lion and tiger, as well as a patio with pillars. Inside, the walls are purple with white furniture, pillars decorate the rooms as well as the heads of stuffed animals.
La Fortaleza is located in the community of Santa Rosa de Lima, in Villagrán, and it is currently a barracks of the National Guard, which joined the operations a few weeks ago; In that municipality four more properties were secured. (See Chivis post on this property)
In the municipality of Comonfort, a strategic property was also confiscated for the operation of the cartel, where an arsenal and tactical equipment with logos of the Criminal Investigation Agency, plus clothing and food were confiscated.
In addition, in the back there was an area with buried bunkers full of long weapons and clandestine graves. In Celaya five more houses were insured, some of two floors, with terraces, palm trees and marble finishes in exclusive subdivisions of the municipality.
During the operations were found 26 vests, one bulletproof , a ballistic plate, four pairs of tactical boots, 13 cloned uniforms, a ballistic helmet, unladen chargers, 51 chargers of various calibers, 4,115 cartridges of various calibers. They also confiscated 300 grams of crystal , 148 kilos of marijuana, 2 kilos of cocaine, 114 wrappings with granulated substance with the characteristics of cocaine rock base three red blisters with 23 pills, 20 cocaine wrappings and 19 wrappings with crystal meth. Also, 24 watches, 11 chains, six charms, 27 rings, three pairs of earrings, a bracelet, a Centenary and 163, 850 Pesos in cash.
In these operations, the authorities reported that nine people deprived of their liberty were rescued in Santa Rosa de Lima, of which six have criminal records, so it is presumed that some of them belong to the Jalisco Nueva Generación Cartel, with the that maintains a dispute over control of the entity.
One of the kidnap victims is a former municipal police officer of Juventino Rosas and was fired for abuse of authority; another one was an active element of the Uriangato police.
