The Underground Hunt for Mexico's Most Wanted Drug Kingpin
MEXICO CITY—Mexican special forces blasted into a safe house in the Sinaloa cartel stronghold of Culiacán earlier this year looking for Mexico's most wanted man: Iván Archivaldo Guzmán.
The son of Sinaloa cartel founder Joaquín 'El Chapo' Guzmán and current leader of the cartel's most powerful faction narrowly evaded capture, according to Mexican officials. A cabinet in a bathroom obscured the entrance to a tunnel where Guzmán escaped as special forces moved in.
