"There has been an area where he has always been working, the group of Cholo Ivan and all the remnants have stayed there".
"The divided groups continue operating, carrying out hydro carbon theft, extortion, vehicle robbery, and crimes of that nature, these groups are still alive", he indicated.
He mentioned that each one of the splinter groups had its own leader, but that they all continued operating for the Sinaloa cartel.
