Mexico arrests 'top trafficker'
Wednesday, 25 March 2009 - BBC
 Mexican soldiers have arrested a man the authorities say is a key figure in one of the country's main drug gangs.
Hector Huerta Rios was detained in the northern city of Monterrey a day after his name appeared along with 36 others listed as Mexico's most-wanted.
The Mexican government is offering rewards of up to $2m (£1.37m) each for information leading to the arrest of the drug lords and their lieutenants.
It was not clear if any money had been paid in this case.
Hector Huerta Rios was listed as a key member of the Beltran Leyva cartel with a $1m price tag on his head.
He is accused of being the main operator in the north of Mexico for the gang, whose base is on the Pacific coast.

Mr Huerta Rios was arrested in Monterrey on Tuesday afternoon, together with four bodyguards, Gen Luis Arturo Oliver told a news conference.
His detention was announced hours before US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton was due to begin a two-day visit to Mexico.
US and Mexican agencies are increasing their co-operation as the gang violence spills over the border, where kidnaps and killings are on the rise.
On Tuesday, the Obama administration announced plans to deploy more US agents and equipment along the border.
Some 8,000 people have died in the past two years, as drug gangs fight for territory amid government crackdowns.

I think your trying to say the Italian Mafia. They have rules. Mexican Mafia kills children because a seven year old can testify. They do not have rules. And no, the crippling of the Italian Mafia did not start this (even though they WERE the first ones to bring in large amounts of high quality heroin), prohibition started this.
