The Mayor of Tijuana, Montserrat Caballero, pointed out that there are indications that Peso Pluma and Fuerza Regida have links with the Sinaloa Cartel, specifically Los Chapitos. She asked the Attorney General’s Office of the State of Baja California to investigate those possible ties and for money laundering.
This was after recent concerts were canceled in Tijuana after several narco mantas threatening the singer and banda in separate incidents were placed around the city, signed by the Jalisco New Generation Cartel (CJNG).
“These two singers sing expressly to a criminal group, I think we have to put on the table why one criminal group and not another. They sing to the Sinaloa Cartel, why their preference?” the Mayor questioned in an interview with Joaquín López-Dóriga for Grupo Formula.

“We did not suspend the concert, although it is true, that the groups did not achieve high sales, I do not know if for that reason they canceled because there are two groups of promoters who cannot [sell[ more than 10,000 tickets, that is already true. We collaborate because that situation caught my attention,” she commented.

“I do not evade my responsibility, they [3 Men] are already detained, linked to a process for terrorizing citizens. Since we have received all kinds of artists and never have those problems,” she stressed.
