May 22 (UPI) -- The United States has sanctioned two high-ranking members of the notorious Cartel del Noreste gang, as the Trump administration cracks down on transnational criminal organizations.
The Treasury on Wednesday blacklisted Miguel Angel de Anda Ledezma, 40, and Ricardo Gonzalez Sauceda, 27.
De Anda is accused of overseeing the procurement of guns and ammunition for the gang.
Gonzalez, an alleged second-in-command of CDN, is currently in Mexican custody. He was arrested in February.
