Mexico cartels: Three suspects escape ‘with help from guards’
Police in Mexico are questioning 10 guards at a prison in the capital, Mexico City, after three high-profile inmates escaped. The three, including a man suspected of being the financier for the sons of jailed drug lord Joaquín Guzmán, walked through five gates before driving away in an official car.
Three guards have reportedly confessed to helping the inmates escape. All three prisoners were facing extradition to the US.
