Lupe Tapia, "Mayo" Zambada's Operator In Sinaloa Captured

"Sol Prendido" for Borderland Beat


In an operation that did not require the use of violence, José Guadalupe Tapia Quintero, one of the key men of the organization led by Ismael "El Mayo" Zambada, was arrested in Culiacán.

Authorities have not officially reported how Lupe Tapia's arrest occurred, but yesterday, Wednesday, the Secretary of the Navy deployed an operation in the Privada Bosque Monarca located in the La Conquista sector, to the northwest of the capital.

The housing unit was surrounded by marines and state agents to search a property.

Security sources indicate that troop movements were also reported in the Tacuichamona syndicate, south of the city. During the night of Wednesday, neighbors of La Conquista reported the overflight of a helicopter at low altitude without navigation lights.

Just last August, Eibar Josué Tapia, Lupe's son, was arrested in a Navy operation that did not require the use of force.

In February 2013, the Arizona Federal Court issued a formal accusation against Lupe Tapia for cocaine and methamphetamine trafficking, and since then the Department of Justice began to process a request for his arrest for extradition purposes.

He was subsequently booked by the U.S. Treasury Department in January 2014, accused of being an important ringleader of "El Mayo" Zambada.

Tapia Quintero is accused of having created cargo transportation companies from Sinaloa to the United States where large quantities of drugs are transshipped.

Following the arrest of his son Eibar, the federal government announced the seizure of several vehicles allegedly linked to the logistics used by the criminal organization.

This operation against a high-ranking member of the Sinaloa Cartel comes just over a month after the Culiacanazo during which Ovidio Guzmán López, "El Ratón," or "El Ratón," was captured.

    1. What would be more fantastic news is if Ismael Zambada García was finally arrested. That lowlife belongs in prison for life.

  6. This is striking pretty high up in the CDS hierarchy. More proof that Mexico is developing the capacity to take on organized crime. It's only a matter of time until peace returns to Mexico.

    2. No! ELMO does nothing for Mexico. He is happy with the bribes and says pretty poems every day at 5 in the morning. It's all for show. Nobody important.

    6. 419 think of all the captures and extraditions that have taken place during this administration and more so since the start of last year and into this one.

    7. @5:58 I know right. I mean why could they be hitting them dumb snitch bitches from CDS so hard instead of focusing on CJNG? Elmo knows better than to fuck with CJNG 😆

    8. 603, whatever AMLO's or the Mexican Militarys strategy is, is beyond me. I wish I had that type of Intel, one thing I can say is, it's producing positive results. As far as not fucking with CJNG, I beg to differ. Some recent goverment attempts against CJNG that come to mind are the operations after Laisha kidnapped the 3 soldiers shortly after her mom was re-aprehended, the operations against RR in his home town and the most recent a few weeks ago in South Western Jalisco where Menchos supposed private hospital was located. Let's also not forget about Menchos brothers capture. Accept it or not, every cartel is taking hits. Even Zambada.

    9. 6:03 Fentanyl.
      Some posters ridiculed the video where CJNG denied they manufactured and trafficked it but my opinion is that they were letting the government and their own members and allies know the organization will not deal that product. Too much heat. Someone before commented that the dude in camo strapped up making the videos is chief of security so...

      Delete
    10. @7:51 I don't doubt CJNG is involved in fentanyl. As it is they're goons doing heinous shit to the populace. So why would they not be moving fentanyl? If the Mexican government wanted to show a better stance they would've smashed Mencho long ago instead of taking his money for them to look away. Another moron they should've apprehended by now is Mayo. We're supposed to believe they can't find this old turd?

    11. 5:58 I’m talking about Detroit’s last two sentences..

    12. 8:09 idk SOL, the way the military is using force and then minimizing or outright denying any killed sicarios it's apparent that they're going hard against those who traffick fentanyl. Besides all the heat it brings it has low value, deja muy poca ganancia para el pedo en que se mete uno, se pasa un consumidor y te cargan su muerte.
      Ya les dieron la orden que dejen ese mugrero si no entienden les van a mandar los BH con la mini gun pa llenarlos de plomo

    1. Maybe, just maybe, AMLO and his government are in a new phase of their ultimate plan and actually combating DTO's. After all, RCQ was caught, Ovidio was caught, Menchos brother, La Vaca and now Lupe is caught. That's 5 different figures from 5 major groups.

    2. Chapos couldn’t stand Lupe Tapia. Known fact. I doubt the govt was tryna get info of Lupe from Ovidio since theres no relationship between them.

    1. No that individual was from Zacatecas and was eventually killed, ironically perhaps by Chapo, for many reasons but one as a "favor" for the kidnapping of the twins and to streamline the pipeline.

  14. In an operation that did not require the use of violence. LOL THATS FUNNY.

    TikTok has a couple of videos of the shoot out. You can see Tapia vehicle speeding and a helicopter shooting at it. TikTok is amazing when it comes to this videos. The people on the video said that’s Tapias car that’s him.
