Mexico's security chief, the man who helped lead the operation that killed the drug lord known as "El Mencho," spends his days and nights inside fortified office buildings, including a one-bedroom apartment in the security ministry built for him. Omar Garcia Harfuch has lived this way since 2020, when on his commute to work a truck cut off his armored Suburban and gunmen disguised as road workers sprayed his vehicle with more than 400 bullets. The security chief blamed the assassination attempt on Nemesio Oseguera, better known as El Mencho, leader of the brutal Jalisco New Generation Cartel. Six years later, bringing down the cartel leader was a deeply personal moment for Harfuch. |
