Alejandrina Giselle Guzman Salazar, daughter of drug lord Joaquin "El Chapo" Guzman, and other Mexican cartels, gave aid packages to people struggling financially due to COVID-19 according to a recently published article.

Typically, Mexican cartels are always on the headlines because of the related crimes like murder, homicide, and drug trafficking. They are also associated with the surge of violence in Mexico amid the infectious and deadly virus.  

EL CHAPO'S DAUGHTER HELPING THE POOR

This time, El Chapo's daughter and several Mexican cartels are making humanitarian efforts by helping people who are struggling financially because of the global health pandemic. 

Joaquin "El Chapo" Guzman is now in a U.S. maximum-security prison and serving his sentence after he was convicted of drug trafficking charges. At the same time, his daughter, Alejandrina, was seen putting toilet paper and food into a cardboard box that has the images of "El Chapo."

Video of the humanitarian work of El Chapo's daughter was posted on Facebook. The video narrator called it as "Chapo's Provisions." It can be seen on the posted video that inside the boxes were oil, sugar, rice, and other items.

The cardboard boxes that contain aid packages were distributed in Mexico's largest city in western Jalisco state, Guadalajara. It was found out that the aid packages given by Alejandrina were linked to her company that markets clothing and alcohols under the "El Chapo 701" brand, and it bears her father's image.

Moreover, the "El Chapo 701" warehouse was stacked with boxes that are scheduled for distribution, and workers wore medical-style facemasks with the image of Joaquin Guzman. Alejandrina was also seen wearing the same face mask.

It can be remembered that El Chapo 701 brand has helped Joaquin Guzman to be included as one of the wealthiest persons in the world. In 2009, he was listed as the 701st richest person with a net worth of $1 billion at that time.

On the official Facebook page of the company that shows Alejandrina wearing a black face mask with El Chapo's image while handing out parcels, the page says, "We are working and contributing. A great pleasure to visit your homes and give you these Chapo handouts."

OTHER MEXICAN CARTELS DOING THEIR HUMANITARIAN ACTS

Other Mexican cartels have been doing humanitarian acts as well in the past few days by giving food boxes. Most of the time, the cartels' gunmen, who are the recipients of the aid, are seen photographed receiving the food boxes.

A video of the Jalisco New Generation Cartel, the country's most influential and powerful organized group at the moment, was uploaded on social media where people received packages stamped with the group's logo with a statement: "From your friends, CJNG, COVID-19 contingency support."

Meanwhile, the Gulf Cartel also distributed their packages in the eastern state of Tamaulipas. The group's boxes contained rice, beans, oil, canned goods, and with a message: "in support of Victoria City." Just like the other Mexican cartels, their food packages were also emblazoned with the name of the group.

Mexico has been struck economically by COVID-19, and many are struggling every day to meet their daily needs. In this time of the global pandemic, Mexican cartels are showing that they also have a compassionate heart to help their fellows.
