The Mexican government is bringing treason charges against Joaquín Guzmán López, son of Joaquín "El Chapo" Guzmán, not for his involvement in drug trafficking, but for allegedly kidnapping Ismael "El Mayo" Zambada, a senior leader of a rival faction within the Sinaloa Cartel. Guzmán López is accused of forcibly bringing Zambada onto a plane and flying him to the United States, where Zambada was detained by U.S. authorities.
The charge of treason stems from a specific article in Mexico's criminal code that defines treason as the illegal abduction of a person within Mexico to hand them over to foreign authorities. This legal provision was notably influenced by historical events, such as the abduction of a Mexican doctor involved in the 1985 torture and murder of DEA agent Kiki Camarena.
The Mexican government views the act of delivering a high-ranking cartel leader to a foreign government as a severe breach of national sovereignty, hence the treason charge. This move has sparked controversy, particularly given the complex political and criminal dynamics surrounding the case
