Potosinoticias.comThe Federal Bureau of Investigation's response is in addition to the five-year reserve imposed by FGR in Mexico on documents related to the case.
The Federal Bureau of Investigations (FBI) confirmed that it retains documents related to the arrest of Ismael Zambada García, known as ‘El Mayo’, but refused to make them public on the grounds that their disclosure would affect the privacy of third parties.
