In a joint operation involving the Mexican Attorney General’s Office (FGR) and its Navy Secretariat, Rodrigo Omar Páez Quintero, nephew of the well-known drug trafficker Rafael Caro Quintero, has been extradited to the United States for criminal prosecution.
The extradition, which was confirmed this Sunday after a complicated process, marks a new chapter in the fight against organized crime that has devastated both Mexico and the United States.
