MEXICO CITY (AP) — The U.S. Treasury Department says it is imposing sanctions on five members of a Mexican family for allegedly laundering money for fugitive drug lord Rafael Caro Quintero and another Sinaloa drug cartel leader.
The department’s Office of Foreign Assets Control said in a statement Thursday that it is acting under the U.S. Kingpin Act against three cousins and two sisters-in-law of Mauricio Sanchez Garza. Sanchez Garza was indicted in San Antonio with one count of conspiracy to launder money.
