"El Fantasma" Reported Captured

Chivis Martinez Borderland Beat
UPDATE at Bottom:

El Debate is reporting that Johnathan Salas Avilez, alias "El Fantasma", has been captured by federal agencies.  The capture reportedly occurred in the city of Costa Rica, Sinaloa.  Costa Rica is 30 miles south of Culiacan (see map).
Few details have been given other than he is detained, so it was a live capture, and four body guards also captured and detained. 
 
Fantasma has been reported captured and even dead in prior reports, but this is what is being reported.
 
He is the chief of "security" for El Chapo.

Residents report that a convoy of eight vehicles were seen in the early morning, and the same time 3 Marina helicopters were flying over head and landed in a neighborhood center. 
The action lacks further details other than it occurred near, the neighborhoods of Oso Nuevo, Oso Viejo and Loma de Redo in the town of Costa Rica.
Updates as they are available.

UPDATE:
Higuera Gomez the attorney general of Sinaloa says he does not have an official report because the operation that resulted in the capture was a federal operation, but that he was aware of the operation and the capture that took place...  Sounds like a confirmation to me.
 
 
Thanks to Mano of forum for the heads up...and Siskiyou_kid..I hope this is the correct photo of him...

  4. They captured his ghost (fantasma) haha since it was reported not just here but everywhere that he was killed by that chopper shooting 50 cal bullets into his suv lighting it on fire. I guess by them capturing his ghost his name el fantasma suits him well

  10. The fact they detained him is huge. Definetly gonna work that mutherfuckr over and get as much info as possible on Chapo. I don't think he was snitched out by his own people like what happened to M-1 for that reason, he would have been killed. Did another cartel snitch him out, or just good police work????
    Interesting

    1. Chivis want to know the truth why el ondeado got kill? It's cause mayo wanted to of his guys and told him send me those two so he cut his heads and send them to mayo. They said he was going crazy and always all drugged up so mayo had to finish him

    2. Manuel Torres Felix was killed because he had set up Vicente Zambada Niebla...Thats why Mayo Zambada pointed out his location to rivals who came and found him alone guarding a house.

  22. u guyz keep saying chapo is always snitching den y da f is CDS guyz getting arrested once in awhile. if he really was a snitch should'nt a lot of CDS guyz get arrested like mayo,azul,MP,bravo or other top guyz.

  23. Now they need to get Chapo Guzman.....dead!!

    ReplyDelete
  24. All you Chapo Dickriders are pathetic... The man is a treacherous snake..Fuck CDS...

  25. Could this be the real Fantasma? Everyone knew that he wasnt dead.

    And then again that one letter that was sent in by el licenciado could have had more meaning than we thought.
    It mentioned how el M1 would fall,El Fantasma, El Cholo, and El Bravo.

    El Cholo was almost caught when he used his girlfriend as a distraction..so El Bravo is next? Macho Prieto? You should add that letter again Chivis..it seems to be on track.

    ReplyDelete
  26. Fantasma , this is the guy who.was working in Tijuana and Mexicali ???...also R5 is.more relevent than this.guy. he's not even seguridad de JAGL, just an operator...
    atte:thinktank28.7Narcovision
    JAGL has Bravo, but he also.uses security apparatus from different countries, not just in Mexico....he JAGL HAS evolved from same security protocols since the BLO split and makeup to the inner war with MZ.
