Mexico charges 2 more cartel members in kidnappings, killings of Americans
Fox News
Prosecutors in Mexico have announced charges against two more cartel members in connection with the March kidnappings of four Americans, two of whom were killed.
The two were arrested during raids in the northern border state of Tamaulipas on Sunday and flown to Mexico City on a military plane. It was not immediately clear why the arrests were not announced at the time.
Federal prosecutors did not provide the full names of the suspects, but the details and first names match two men listed on a federal database as being arrested in Tamaulipas that day. Those names — Axel Alfredo Cárdenas and Alan Alexis Cárdenas — suggest they are related to Osiel Cárdenas Guillen, the Gulf cartel leader captured in 2003.
