According to a survey was conducted by the polling company named- Parametría, showed that 77 percent of Mexicans; believe that their government helped the notorious drug lord “El Chapo” out of a maximum-security jail last month.
According to the survey, less than half of all those polled
believe that the fugitive drug lord will be caught; whereas some lost hope on
their government and her institutions.
Guzman managed to escape from his cell at the Altiplano
jail, which is Mexico’s highest-security facility, on July 11 even though he
was reportedly wearing an electronic monitoring bracelet, and surveillance
cameras were recording his jail cell 24 hours a day.

Guzman Loera “El Chapo” Guzmán was, and from which he escaped through a tunnel,
on July 15, 2015, in Almoloya de Juarez, Mexico.
El Chapo according to American business magazine ‘Forbes’ was
named as the 14th richest man in the world.
Over half of those polled do not believe there is any point
in recapturing El Chapo, as their trust in government has dropped so
significantly.
“Nowadays, people are much better informed and better
educated, especially the younger generation, and they are tired of lies,
corruption, and clumsy declarations. This signifies a failing political system
that cannot sustain itself anymore,” Lenin Martell, professor of communication
and cultural studies at the Autonomous University of the State of Mexico said
on Friday.
This was not the first time the notorious drug lord escaped
prison. Guzmán’s first prison break was in 2001, when he slipped past
authorities by hiding in a laundry cart in the western Jalisco state.
In February 2014 in a predawn raid at a condo in Mazatlan, a
Pacific resort in Sinaloa State Mexican Marines recaptured him.
DEA (Drug Enforcement Administration) distributed posters in
Mexico announcing an active free phone line to give information to capture
Joaquin “El Chapo” Guzmán and offering a reward of $5 million dollars.
