Rubio, Colleagues Urge Biden Administration to Sanction International Tobacco Company Linked to Mexican Cartels
At a time when criminal cartels are diversifying their lucrative enterprises, reports have surfaced regarding the ties of Tobacco International Holdings (TIH), a Switzerland-registered business, with Mexico’s Cártel de Jalisco Nueva Generación (CJNG).
U.S. Senators Marco Rubio (R-FL), Tom Cotton (R-AR), Rick Scott (R-FL), Bill Hagerty (R-TN), and Bill Cassidy (R-LA) sent a letter to U.S. Secretary of the Treasury Janet Yellen urging her to sanction TIH, its principals, and its subsidiaries and affiliate companies due to its publicly reported affiliation with the Jalisco New Generation Cartel (CJNG).
- “Since at least 2018, the Cártel de Jalisco Nueva Generación (CJNG), a cartel sanctioned by the United States for its role in trafficking narcotics and fentanyl, has been involved in the sale of tobacco products to generate a new revenue stream. Media reports indicate that Mexico’s Financial Intelligence Unit (UIF) has opened an investigation into Tobacco International Holdings Switzerland SA (TIH), which is suspected of having ties with CJNG. According to this report, TIH, with the overt assistance of former and current members of Mexican government bodies, and the threat of CJNG reprisal, has monopolized the tobacco market in several Mexican states.”
The full text of the letter is here.
RUBIO, COLEGAS INSTAN A LA ADMINISTRACIÓN DE BIDEN A SANCIONAR EMPRESA TABACALERA VINCULADA A CÁRTELES MEXICANOS
En un momento en que los cárteles criminales están diversificando sus lucrativas empresas, informes han surgido sobre los vínculos de Tobacco International Holdings (TIH), una empresa registrada en Suiza, con el Cártel Jalisco Nueva Generación (CJNG) de México.
Los senadores estadounidenses Marco Rubio (R-FL), Tom Cotton (R-AR), Rick Scott (R-FL), Bill Hagerty (R-TN) y Bill Cassidy (R-LA) le enviaron una carta a la Secretaría del Tesoro de EE.UU., Janet Yellen instandola a sancionar a TIH, sus directores y sus empresas subsidiarias y afiliadas debido a su afiliación públicamente informada con el Cártel Jalisco Nueva Generación (CJNG).
- “Desde al menos el 2018, el Cártel de Jalisco Nueva Generación (CJNG), un cartel sancionado por EE.UU. por su rol en el tráfico de narcóticos y fentanilo, ha estado involucrado en la venta de productos de tabaco para generar una nueva fuente de ingresos. Los informes de los medios indican que la Unidad de Inteligencia Financiera (UIF) de México abrió una investigación sobre Tobacco International Holdings Switzerland SA (TIH), que se sospecha tiene vínculos con el CJNG. Según este informe, TIH, con la ayuda abierta de miembros anteriores y actuales de los órganos del gobierno mexicano, y la amenaza de represalias del CJNG, ha monopolizado el mercado del tabaco en varios estados mexicanos”.
