New Delhi, 10 August 2021

As per news report of BBC, the warning was made by a man who said it was on behalf of the leader of the Jalisco New Generation cartel (CJNG). He complained that Milenio Television was favouring so-called self-defence groups organised to resist the CJNG. In the video, journalist Azucena Uresti is threatened directly. "I will make you eat your words even if they accuse me of femicide," the man warns. The brutal CJNG has been blamed for some of Mexico's bloodiest attacks and its leader, Nemesio Oseguera Cervantes, is one of the country's most wanted men. The US is offering a $10m (£7.2m) reward for information leading to his capture.
