Operation in Tabasco dismantles CJNG cell with arrest of 12 people

A multinational operation dismantles a criminal network with international connections in the heart of Tabasco.

A Forceful Blow to Organized Crime in Tabasco

Justice advances with firm steps! In an unprecedented coordinated action, federal and state authorities managed to dismantle a dangerous cell of the Jalisco New Generation Cartel (CJNG) in Tabasco. Twelve people, including five Guatemalan citizens, were detained with weapons, drugs and tactical equipment in their possession. This operation shows that teamwork between institutions ALWAYS gives extraordinary results.

The Details that Inspire Hope

Among those captured stands out Juan Roberto López Llanes, alias “Pitufo”, only 24 years old but identified as the head of the plaza in Paraíso. What does this teach us? That it is never too late to change path, but also that the consequences of bad decisions come sooner rather than later. The operations spread throughout Paraíso, Jalpa de Méndez and Cunduacán, showing that no corner of the country is beyond the reach of the law.

The aliases of the detainees – “El Burrito”, “El Negro”, “Teto”, “La Maestra” – remind us that crime is not glamorous. Behind every nickname there are truncated stories, affected families and lost dreams. But today, thanks to the efforts of the Navy, Sedena, FGR and National Guard, these people will have the opportunity to reflect before justice.

International Cooperation that Makes a Difference

This operation had a multinational flavor! With the arrest of five Guatemalans, it is demonstrated that the fight against organized crime knows no borders. In Amatitlán, Cunduacán and Paraíso, agents seized not only people, but vehicles, weapons and cash. Each seizure is one more step towards the peace that Tabasco deserves.

The authorities reported that all detainees were informed of their rights before being placed at the disposal of the MP. This fills us with pride, because in Mexico justice operates with transparency and respect for human rights, even with those who have broken the law.

A Message of Hope for Tabasco

While Tabasco faces a complex struggle between the CJNG and “La Barredora”, with a 98% increase in intentional homicides this year, operations like this are beacons of hope. Every arrest, every weapon seized, represents lives potentially saved and communities that will be able to breathe easier.

This success reminds us that security is everyone’s job. From reporting suspicious activity to supporting our law enforcement, every action counts. The Mexico we surely dream of is built day by day with facts like these!

A rapidly spreading disaster

A large fire consumed part of the town of San José de Comondú, in Baja California Sur. The preliminary balance is 25 homes destroyed and damage to at least another 50. The material losses are considerable.

Seven out of 10 restaurants did not see a rebound in the first month of the tournament.

World Cup 2026: a moderate boost for restaurants

The start of the 2026 World Cup did not meet the expectations of the restaurant industry. A survey by the National Chamber of the Restaurant and Seasoned Food Industry (Canirac) reveals that seven out of 10 establishments did not register significant growth in their income during the first month of the tournament.

The most and least benefited

Restaurant-bars and sports bars were the least favored. Only half of these businesses reported an improvement in consumption. At the opposite extreme, canteens benefited the most: eight out of 10 reported an increase in their sales. Bars, for their part, recorded improvements in just over half of the cases.

The increases were moderate, between 15% and 30%, with an average consumption of around 400 pesos per person during the first weeks of the championship. Canirac highlighted that, although the tournament represents an opportunity, it does not guarantee automatic benefits for the entire industry.

The organization did not offer projections for the rest of the championship, but warned that the impact varies depending on the type of business and its ability to attract fans.
