PHOTOS: Narco Cemetery, where Mexico cartel bosses buried in million-dollar bulletproof mansions
Mexico’s most notorious drug lords are turning death into a display of wealth, with luxury mausoleums fitted with air conditioning, bulletproof glass, CCTV cameras and even WiFi at the Jardines del Humaya cemetery.
According to the BBC, the cemetery has become one of the strongest symbols of Mexico’s growing narco culture, where fortunes generated through drug trafficking are flaunted long after death.
While many victims of cartel violence are buried in unmarked graves, cartel bosses accused of orchestrating the bloodshed are laid to rest in lavish crypts worth hundreds of thousands of pounds.
Several high-profile figures linked to the Sinaloa Cartel are buried there, including Arturo Beltrán Leyva, whose remains lie in a gold-plated coffin.
