Son of Mexican drug lord Joaquin ‘El Chapo’ Guzman, Ovid Guzman, was recently arrested in Culiacan on Thursday (5/1/2023). During this arrest there was a confrontation that killed 39 people consisting of 10 soldiers and 19 criminal suspects.

Ovidio “El Ratón” Guzman is the son of Joaquín “El Chapo” Guzman Loera, a Mexican drug lord. Ovidio has been arrested for allegedly helping run his father’s operations since El Chapo was extradited to the United States in 2017.

El Chapo also known as one of the richest drug cartels. In a report from the 2019 edition of the New York Times, Sunday (8/1/2023), he made a lot of money selling drugs. He is said to have owned a couple of yachts, a fleet of Learjets and a private zoo which contained tigers, crocodiles and panthers.

During his career as a drug dealer, he sold nearly 600,000 kilograms (worth over $11 billion), 200 kilograms of heroin (worth over $11 million), and at least 420,000 kilograms of marijuana (worth nearly $11 million). $846 million). However, the prosecutor handling the El Chapo case said it was still an estimate of the total amount of drugs still unknown.
