In early September, authorities in central Mexico arrested Alejandro Gilmare Mendoza, also known as "El Choko," identified as the leader of La Chokiza, a criminal organization linked to homicides, extortion, drug trafficking, and illegal property seizures in the State of Mexico. It was a scandal, but it paled after the authorities revealed a connection with an important figure in the world of politics in the Mexican capital.
Following his arrest, images began circulating on social media suggesting that El Choko had both a professional and romantic relationship with Sandra Cuevas, the former borough mayor of Cuauhtémoc in Mexico City.
