Mexico Arrests Drug Boss for Slaying of Activist’s Son

The suspect was the reputed boss of the Beltran Leyva cartel’s operations in Morelos state, where the son of anti-violence activist Javier Sicilia was slain, the Mexican defense department said.
Army troops apprehended a drug kingpin in connection with last year’s murder of the son of anti-violence activist Javier Sicilia, the Mexican defense department said Friday.

Raul Diaz Roman was captured Thursday in Tecamac, a town in the central state of Mexico, the department said in a statement.

The suspect was the reputed boss of the Beltran Leyva cartel’s operations in Morelos state, where Sicilia’s son was slain, and it was people under Diaz’s command who carried out the murder, the department said.

Diaz worked for the cartel while still an active-duty member of the Morelos police, overseeing drug trafficking in the cities of Cuernavaca, Xochitepec and Jiutepec, according to the statement.
It was March 2011 when Juan Francisco Sicilia and six other men were found dead inside a vehicle in Temixco, Morelos.

His son’s death prompted Javier Sicilia, a prominent poet and commentator, to abandon literature and create the Movement for Peace with Justice and Dignity to press for an end to the Mexican government’s militarized approach to crime-fighting.

A multi-front conflict pitting rival drug cartels against each other and the security forces has claimed more than 50,000 lives in Mexico since December 2006, when newly inaugurated President Felipe Calderon gave the armed forces the leading role in the struggle with organized crime.

  1. I thought it was established that El Negro Radilla, and his gunmen were partying, and got into a petty conflict with the son and his friends, there was something to do with corrupted cops too, they didn't want anyone to tell, so they smothered them, and left the bodies in the trunk of a car. And then blamed CDG for the murders. Lord knows what CDG was doing in Morelos, haven't been heard from since. Why would this man, arrested a year later have ordered the death of Javier Sicilla's son? I do not doubt the article, and I am not being critical, just curious.

  3. I looked up the article, which says some cops on the CPS payroll tried to extort or rob the kids, when the kids said they would report them, the cops called CPS enforcers, led by Radilla, and El Pelon, who tortured and murdered the kids. It was in Time magazine, but BB posted it too, last summer. So, if this guy was the Beltran plaza boss at the time, I guess he is guilty by default.
