After the execution of the Mazatlecos bosses of the plaza, H2 and his nephew H9, their closest sicarios have now organized themselves under the command of "El Mencho".

The new boss of the plaza is Martin de la Zapata, along with Luis Francisco Osuna Ontiveros, alias "La Thalia", both were raised in Mazatlan.


Martin was a gunman of "El Chapo" Guzman when he was detained in April 5th of 2011, in Lomas of Mazatlan, Sinaloa, on board two armored SUV's and an arsenal of weapons. Back then, his direct boss was "El Micky", "M17" or "666", brothers of "El Thalia".

Martin de la Zapata

While Martin was in jail, El Micky and his brother Thalia, betrayed "El Chapo". M17 and his bodyguard were executed in Tijuana on orders of "El Chapo".

Proceso wrote an article about Edgar Veyta were they accuse him of having links to CJNG and of being a really powerful man, I will post the article tomorrow.

In 2015, Martin left prison and contacted "El Thalia", he then started working with the people of H2, and he became responsible for the violence in Mazatlan. Today, Martin is in charge of Tepic, his second in command is Nicolas Gallardo Garcia alias "El Nico", with the economic support from Edgar Veytia, and now the person in charge of Mazatlan is "La Thalia" and "El Guero Saba".

"El Micky and El Thalia"

Martin is known for being extremely violent and for not respecting woman and children.
