Awake Goy Mexican drug kingpin Joaquin “El Chapo” Guzman was presented late Friday in dark blue athletic gear as he was marched to a helicopter by Mexican marines on his way back to the same maximum security he escaped from nearly six months ago.
Fox News was told Friday that the U.S. will request Guzman be extradited to the U.S. to face federal charges. Mexican leaders avoided talk about extradition, but even if they do decide to go forward and send him to the U.S., the process likely would not be fast.
The calls for his quick extradition grew even louder than when Guzman was first captured in February 2014. Guzman, who is the head of the powerful, international Sinaloa Cartel faces multiple drug charges in several U.S. states. Mexico’s government insisted it could handle the man who had already broken out of the Altiplano maximum-security prison, saying he must pay his debt to Mexican society first.
Guzman escaped from Mexico’s most secure prison under the noses of guards and prison officials on July 11, slipping out a tunnel that it showed the level of Mexico’s corruption while thoroughly embarrassing the administration of President Enrique Pena Nieto.
In celebrating Guzman’s latest capture, Mexican officials showed none of their bravado of two years ago, though they made clear that the intelligence building and investigation were carried out entirely by Mexican forces. They did not mention extradition.
“They have to extradite him,” said Alejandro Hope, a security analyst in Mexico. “It’s almost a forced moved.”

The drug lord was apprehended after a shootout between gunmen and Mexican marines at the home in Los Mochis, a seaside city in Guzman’s home state of Sinaloa.
Authorities keenly tracked Guzman down in the upscale neighborhood in a coastal city was because he wanted to film a biopic about his life of divisiveness and corruption, according to Attorney General Arely Gomez.
“For that he established communication with actresses and producers, which became a new line of investigation,” she said.
Friday’s operation resulted from six months of investigation and intelligence-gathering by Mexican forces, who located Guzman in Durango state in October, but decided not to shoot because he was with two women and a child, she said. After that he took a lower profile and limited his communication until he decided to move to Los Mochis in December.
Gomez said that one of Guzman’s key tunnel builders led them to the neighborhood in Los Mochis where authorities did surveillance for a month. The team noticed a lot of activity at the house Wednesday and the arrival of a car early Thursday morning. Authorities were able to determine that Guzman was inside the house, she said.
Marines were involved in a shootout early Friday and were met with gunfire. Five suspects were killed and six others arrested. One marine was injured.
“You could hear intense gunfire and a helicopter; it was fierce,” said a neighbor, adding that the battle raged for three hours, starting at 4 a.m. She refused to be quoted by name in fear for her own safety.
