Mexican President Andrés Manuel López Obrador (AMLO) said it's "highly likely" that increased violence in the state of Sinaloa is linked to the recent capture of high profile cartel leader Ismael "El Mayo" Zambada.
Speaking at his daily press conference, AMLO acknowledged ongoing clashes in the area and said Zambada himself has called for restraint. "He wrote that violence is not convenient or something like that. We don't want violence, no one wants it, the people of Sinaloa don't deserve violence," he said.
