Security protocols are now in place at the venues for the 2026 World Cup after the capture of Nemesio Oseguera Cervantes, known as 'El Mencho', leader of the Jalisco New Generation Cartel (CJNG). This development has sparked public safety measures across the Mexican state of Jalisco, particularly in Guadalajara, where the Colombian national soccer team is set to play during the tournament. Authorities are taking these steps to ensure the safety of both local residents and international visitors. Moreover, following the violent confrontations that arose from the operation resulting in El Mencho's arrest, the United States and Canada have advised their citizens to remain on high alert and stay indoors until further notice. The implications for public security and international relations are significant, especially as these countries gear up for a large-scale global event that expects thousands of visitors from around the world. As an immediate response to these heightened security concerns, a local sporting event—a crucial match in the Mexican Women's League scheduled at Akron Stadium—has already been postponed. This incident not only underscores the gravity of the situation but also raises questions regarding the safety measures that will be necessary for the impending World Cup.
