In Guadalajara, Mexico, the national military and National Guard are stationed around a funeral home where the body of notorious drug trafficker Nemesio Oseguera, known as "El Mencho", is being kept. This heightened security follows El Mencho's death a week prior during a military operation. The area is heavily monitored, emphasizing the significant threat that his criminal legacy poses even after his death.

A federal source revealed that the security measures include dozens of military vehicles and a military helicopter patrolling the vicinity, indicating the importance of maintaining order during a potential gathering of mourners. El Mencho was the leader of the Jalisco New Generation Cartel (CJNG), one of Mexico's most powerful and violent drug trafficking organizations, and concerns regarding his followers' actions have compelled authorities to take these precautions at the funeral site.

As the body awaits burial, scheduled for Monday, the implications of El Mencho's death on the broader drug trafficking landscape in Mexico remain to be seen. His leadership has been synonymous with a significant increase in violence and drug-related crime, and authorities are wary of possible retaliatory actions from rival gangs or unrest among his supporters during the burial.
