Signs have appeared in northern Mexico claiming that the notorious Sinaloa Cartel is no longer pushing the synthetic opioid Fentanyl.
The drug, known as ‘apache’ or ‘china town’ , causes thousands of overdoses worldwide every year- and is one of the most profitable income streams for the infamous crew, so investigators have poured cold water over the claims.

Nonetheless, one of Mexico’s top journalists, Michelle Rivera, wrote a translation on social media about what the banners revealed.

“In Sinaloa the sale or trafficking of Fentanilo is prohinbited, say the Chapitos. Placed in various points throughout the State,” the broadcaster stated.
