Cartel Del Noreste (CDN) releases a video disavowing the narco threat message that circulated last week on WhatsApp.
Where they threatened the government of Nuevo Leon and its different government agencies. They also say that they do not charge fees to small businesses.
Mr. Samuel Garcia and the director of the State Investigative Agency Esteban Cantu. Regarding the notes that are circulating on social networks in which we, the Northeast Cartel, supposedly declared war on you. This is completely false. We don’t have any problems with Samuel Garcia or Esteban Cantu. Nor with any authority for that matter.
They do their jobs. Which we respect. And we do ours. So we are not responsible for what is circulating online because it’s a delicate matter to threaten families. This is on account of the fact that we all have families. And we are not cheap individuals either. Also, when we are going to do something we don’t threaten. Nor do we make it public.
Therefore, let it be made clear that we have nothing personal against them. Those notes or messages are made by people spontaneously. We also want to clarify that we do not extort businesses such as butcher shops, grocery stores, transportation lines, or any other type of business. This all comes from people who use our name to extort money.
Without further ado, we send you a cordial greeting and we hope you put your heart and soul into your work. Focus on doing your jobs and we will focus on doing ours.
Yours truly, The Northeast Cartel [Cártel del Noreste]
