The Jalisco New Generation Cartel, also known as CJNG, is a Mexican criminal syndicate based in Jalisco founded and headed by Nemesio Oseguera Cervantes, commonly known as El Mencho, until he was killed by the Mexican Army in 2026. The cartel has been characterized by extreme violence and public relations campaigns. Though the CJNG is known for diversifying into various criminal rackets, drug trafficking remains its most profitable activity. The cartel has been noted for cannibalizing some victims during the training of new sicarios or members, as well as using drones and rocket-propelled grenades to attack enemies.
