Joaquin El Chapo Guzman: Beltran Leon

Alfredo Guzman Salazar Dept: The man arrested Thursday as the presumed son of Joaquin El Chapo Guzman is really Felix Beltran Leon, 23, and not Alfredo Guzman Salazar, as the Mexican Navy had presented him, the Attorney General's Office said Friday, according to CBC. But Beltran Leon's wife, Karla Pacheco, said he is the father of a toddler and works with his mother-in-law at a used car dealership and the Mexican navy, working with U.S. intelligence, announced proudly it had nabbed the son of Mexico's top fugitive drug lord, parading him before the media, but it turned out they got the wrong man. The stocky, baby-faced suspect had been presented as the son of Guzman, the chief of the Sinaloa Cartel, and a Navy official described him as a rising operator in the international drug trafficking organization (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
