In Mexico week before last, 44 prisoners who belonged to the Gulf drug cartel were bludgeoned and stabbed to death by inmates from the rival Zetas cartel inside the Apodaca state prison and 30 Zetas escaped during the carnage.
According to Borderland Beat, thereupon the Zetas issued the following manta:
"GENERAL NOTICE TO THE PEOPLE OF MEXICO. NUEVO LEON IS ZETA TERRITORY AND WE DEMONSTRATE OUR POWER WITH FACTS, EVEN IF RODRIGO MEDINA DOESN'T LIKE IT, HE WILL HAVE TO OBEY BECAUSE WE SUPPORTED HIM TO BECAME A GOVERNOR. DID YOU THINK THAT THE 20 MILLION DOLLARS GIVING TO HIM BY LIC MANUEL QUINONES BROTHER IN LAW OF FACSI ZUAZUA FOR HIS CAMPAIGN WERE JUST FOR FREE?. DID YOU THINK WE WILL NOT GET SOMETHING IN RETURN FOR WHAT WE PAID TO RODRIGO THROUGH AGUSTÍN SERNA DE LA CROC?. THAT'S WHY I DO WHATEVER I WANT IN NUEVO LEON BECAUSE IT BELONG TO ME,
I RELEASE WHOEVER I WANT FROM PRISON AND THE SAME WAY I KILL THE ENEMY CDG. ACCEPT IT THE ONLY THING THAT THE GOVERNMENT OF CALDERON AND THE NEXT PRESIDENT CAN DO IS TO COME TO AN AGREEMENT WHIT US BECAUSE IF THEY DON'T WE WILL OVERTHROW THE GOVERNMENT AND WE WILL TAKE THE POWER BY FORCE THE SAME WAY WE HAVE BEEN DOING IT TILL NOW, HAVEN'T YOU PEOPLE NOTICED YOU CAN'T DEFEAT US, NOT EVEN WITH THE SUPPORT OF THE GOVERNMENT OF THE UNITED STATES (ICE, ATF, FBI, DEA) MUCH LESS WITH THE SUPPORT OF THE NAVY, ARMY, AFI, SIEDO, PGR, HERE THE ZETAS ARE THE ONES WITH THE POWER.
ATTE: HERIBERTO LAZCANO and MIGUEL TREVIÑO MORALES Z40”

This manta shows how brazen the Zetas have become, and they are not even Mexico’s most powerful drug cartel. That honor belongs to the Sinaloa cartel.
