EL PASO, Texas (Border Report) – Mexico has turned over to U.S. authorities a man accused of running a criminal cell in Juarez that exported large quantities of methamphetamine to several American communities.

The man only identified by a first name and last name initial (Jesus “M”) was turned over to U.S. agents at the Mexico City International Airport for extradition, Mexico’s Attorney General’s Office said Wednesday in a statement.

Jesus M. is wanted on criminal conspiracy and drug trafficking charges in U.S. District Court for the Western District of Texas, the Mexican AG’s Office said.

Mexico identifies Jesus M. as a “leader of a criminal organization located in Juarez.” He allegedly supervised drug stash houses and coordinated meth distribution in U.S. territory, the AG’s Office said.

Mexico arrested Jesus M. last May in the western state of Michoacan and the courts green-lighted his extradition to the United States, according to the statement.
