Guerreros Unidos (English: United Warriors, lit.'Warriors Unified') is a Mexican criminal syndicate in the states of Southern Mexico.
In 2014, the cartel kidnapped 43 students from Ayotzinapa College in Iguala, Guerrero. A witness confirmed that soldiers in the Mexican Army were involved in the kidnapping, by interrogating the students at the army base in the town of Iguala and then handing them over to the cartel.[1]
Much of what is known about the gang comes from investigations into the disappearance of the Ayotzinapa
student teachers, and 23,000 text messages from BlackBerry communications among the gang members obtained by the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration.[2]
