Mexican President Andrés Manuel López Obrador on Wednesday demanded that former Secretary of Public Security Genaro García Luna, who was convicted on drug trafficking charges in the United States last year, present evidence to support his accusations that the president has links to drug trafficking.
López Obrador was responding to a jailhouse letter from García Luna that his attorney distributed to the press. García Luna alleged contact between López Obrador and the faction of the Sinaloa cartel led by Ismael “El Mayo” Zambada, who was arrested in July in Texas.
