Navolato, Mexico
One of three young people who died in the crash of a plane registered Thursday in the city of Navolato, Sinaloa state, was the grandson of Mexican capo Amado Carrillo Fuentes. “The Lord of the heavens“, mighty leader of the Juarez Cartel
Police companies reported that one of the victims of the plane crash was identified as César Isaac Carrillo, son of César Carrillo Leyva, aka “El Cesarín”, who was also killed in Navolato last August.
The latter was the son of “El Señor de los Cielos” and had a rivalry with the children of Joaquín El Chapo Guzmán for the drug trade in that coastal area.
The accident took place around 11:00 am local time (5:00 pm GMT) in a field located in the Cofradía de Navolato, between an ethanol factory and a shed, about 200 meters from the Culiacán-Navolato highway.
Cesar Isaac, who was an aviation student, traveled in one flat Cessna registration XB-LDX, in the company of two people, including the pilot, and all three were from Navolato.
The aircraft took off from a nearby runway and while performing mid-air maneuvers, collapsed and crashed on the aforementioned terrain.
The three young men were killed instantly.
After confirmation of the identity and death of the grandson of Amado Carrillo, relatives, colleagues and friends of the young man expressed their condolences on their social networks.
The Patriarch Carrillo Fuentes got the nickname “The Lord of the heavens“for his fleet of planes to transport drugs when he was the leader of the Juarez cartel, which was at its peak in the 1990s.
The capo died in the Mexican capital on July 4, 1997 after an aesthetic surgery to modify his face.
With diminished influence at this point, the Juárez Cartel is concentrating its presence in the northern state of Chihuahua, where it waged a bloody war with the Sinaloa Cartel in mid-2010 that sparked violence in the region, especially in Ciudad Juárez, border with El Paso . (Texas) USA.
The organization still trades heroin and methamphetamine to El Paso, Denver, Chicago and Oklahoma, and Carrillo Fuentes’ children are in trouble with the law. EFE
