The defense of Joaquin Guzman Loera, alias “El Chapo”, accused by the Mexican and US authorities of leading the powerful Sinaloa Cartel, prepares a legal appeal to be presented to the Mexican authorities, in order that Guzman be returned and judged on Mexican soil for the criminal proceedings against him in his homeland.
Jose Refugio, one of Guzman Loera's lawyers confirmed the decision in an interview with Anadolu Agency. The lawyer insisted that the due process was violated since Guzman's recapture in January 2016 at Los Mochis locality in Sinaloa, Mexico, then, after his extradition to the United States in January 2017.
“I am analyzing and raising the possibility that the United States may return [Guzman] to Mexico so that he can be tried at his homeland for the pending criminal proceedings,” said Refugio. The attorney added that Guzman Loera's defense will present the legal recourse in Mexico before Feb. 15.
This recapture that took place five years ago occurred after Guzman Loera escaped on July 11, 2015, when he fled from the maximum-security prison Centro Federal de Readaptacion Social 1, better known as the Altiplano, located in the State of Mexico, two hours from Mexico City.
