“You always have to keep the door open when it comes to human rights,” Mexcian President Andrés Manuel López Obrador said of El Chapo’s claims about conditions in his US prison.
“We will review it,” President Andrés Manuel López Obrador said Wednesday, before adding: “You always have to keep the door open when it comes to human rights.”
Once one of the most feared and vicious narcotraffickers from Central America, Guzman is now left making his case to be brought home over claims he is experiencing “psychological torment” in his super-max American prison. The Mexican Embassy in Washington confirmed it received a request from Guzman’s attorney, José Refugio Rodríguez.
The request detailed the infamous drug peddler’s complaints about US prison, including issues with the quality of medical care, food and lack of sunlight. The email from Rodríguez was turned over to Mexico’s Foreign Relations Department. Mexican President Andrés Manuel López Obrador said Wednesday that his government will review El Chapo’s request to return home to carry out his sentence.
