Mexican cartels

The shooting death of a man believed to be Óscar Noé Medina González, known as El Panu, in a central Mexico City restaurant has raised numerous questions about his identity and security. His wife claims he was Óscar Ruiz, a hotelier from Mazatlán visiting for the holidays. The incident unfolds amid the Sinaloa Cartel's internal war, which has led to over 1,800 murders since July 2024.
