Mexican Cartels Ally With Hezbollah To Distribute In Qatar

In Qatar, there is no alcohol in the stadiums, but there are drugs on the streets. And those who sell it are the heirs to the criminal structure of Joaquin El Chapo Guzman and representatives of Nemesio Oseguera Cervantes, El Mencho, who have turned the World Cup stadium into one more of their strongholds outside of Mexico.

In an exclusive interview with MILENIO, the expert on narcoterrorism in the Persian Gulf Johan Obdola assured that, for the past five years, the two largest cartels in the country have been distributing cocaine in Qatari territory, according to investigations carried out by the international consultancy -IOSI Global Organization for Security and Intelligence- on drug trafficking in the Arab World.

"In relation to Qatar, since 2017 we detected the presence of drug cartels, specifically the Sinaloa Cartel and the Jalisco New Generation Cartel. "We are following very closely what is going to happen with this World Cup and what is going to happen with the operations of the cartels," said Johan Obdola from Dubai, where he advises officials in charge of combating drug trafficking and terrorism in the United Arab Emirates, Qatar's neighboring nation.

According to Johan Obdola, the supply of Mexican cartels in the home of the 2022 World Cup is not limited to cocaine, but also includes methamphetamines and captagon, known as "the drug of the jihadists," a potent amphetamine that is capable of stimulating the nervous system to the point of preventing sleep for more than 36 hours and is very popular among the ranks of terrorist groups.
