Mexican drug kingpin Joaquin “El Chapo” Guzman says he has been sexually harassed at the prison where he awaits extradition to the U.S.
The notorious head of the Sinaloa cartel’s lawyer Silvia Delgado told El Nacional that her client was being targeted by an unnamed official at the federal penitentiary in Ciudad Juarez.
“This officer does not touch me to check me, he handles me,” the gangster reportedly said.
Delgado alleged that guards have interrupted El Chapo’s sleeping schedule, which has become a common refrain by his defense team.
His lawyers have also tried to stop his extradition to the United States, where he has long been wanted on racketeering and drug trafficking charges for years of leading his violent gang.
In October a judge ruled in favor of sending him north of the border, though his case is expected to be appealed all the way to the Mexican Supreme Court.
Guzman, who has escaped from Mexican prisons twice, was recaptured early last year, several weeks after he met with Sean Penn for an interview.
