The extraditions also includes Antonio Oseguera Cervantes, the brother of Mexico's most wanted drug lord El Mencho.

Who is Antonio Oseguera Cervantes and what charges are against him?
Antonio Oseguera Cervantes is one of the high-ranking leaders of the Jalisco New Generation Cartel (CJNG). His criminal career within the group began in the early 1990s and he is identified as one of the main operators in drug trafficking and in the purchase and sale of weapons for the organization.

The brother of 'El Mencho' has been arrested on three occasions by both the US and Mexican authorities. The first arrest occurred in 1996 in the United States for heroin distribution, according to a statement from the Treasury Department.

The second arrest occurred in December 2015 while he was traveling in a vehicle in Tlajomulco de Zúñiga, Jalisco . On that occasion, assault weapons, a pistol and narcotics were seized from him. However, he was released after a judge determined that there were irregularities in his arrest.

In December 2022, 'Tony Montana' was captured again in a Guadalajara suburb. At the time, authorities reported that he was overseeing violent actions, logistics, weapons acquisition, and money laundering operations for the Jalisco Nueva Generación Cartel (CJNG).
