Mexico captures Knights
Templar drug cartel leader
Mexican federal police captured
Knights Templar drug cartel leader Servando Gomez on Friday, taking down one of
the country’s most wanted fugitives whose gang tormented the western state of
Michoacan.
Gomez, alias “La Tuta,” was detained without a
shot fired in Morelia, Michoacan’s capital, a National Security Commission
official told AFP on condition of anonymity.
The 49-year-old
former teacher is being transferred to Mexico City, where authorities will hold
a press conference about the capture, which was the result “of several months
of intelligence work by federal police,” the official said.
