The United States government has announced a new judicial offensive against alleged leaders of the Jalisco New Generation Cartel (CJNG), filing federal charges and offering rewards totaling more than $100 million for information leading to their capture.

U.S. authorities allege that those charged play key roles within the criminal organization, which has been linked to international drug trafficking and other illicit activities. The action is part of a broader strategy to weaken the cartel’s financial and operational structure through cooperation with domestic and international law enforcement agencies.

Officials emphasized that the goal is to bring to justice those they believe are responsible for directing large-scale criminal operations. They also reaffirmed their commitment to using legal, intelligence, and international partnerships to pursue the organization’s top leaders.

What is the purpose of these rewards?

They are intended to encourage the public to provide credible information that could lead to the location and arrest of the accused, strengthening joint efforts to combat transnational organized crime networks.
