MEXICO CITY - Want to know how El Chapo jail room right now? Mexican journalist, Carlos Loret de Mola claims this is the first picture of the notorious Joaquin 'El Chapo' Guzman, cartel boss inside his cell at the maximum security Altiplano prison.
El Chapo became the world's most wanted man when he escaped from the same prison in July through a mile long underground tunnel in what his second jail break from the facility. This time, however, prison bosses promise there will be no chance of escape after massively ramping up security.
The Sinaloa cartel chief has been moved seven times in his first five nights, with staff planning to shuffle him between at least 30 cells, it was reported by El Universal. He will also be guarded by a squad of dogs dubbed 'Smell Chapo' which are trained to detect his scent. Federal agents with cameras attached to their helmets will also work in two hour shifts to keep a strict eye on the prisoner.
Renato Sales, Mexico's National Security commissioner, told Radio Formula that Guzman has no privileges, not even the ones he enjoyed in his earlier prison stint and that he was especially upset when forced to get all of his hair cut off.
Meanwhile, construction work outside the prison has sparked fears the drugs kingpin may be trying to pull another audacious jailbreak. El Chapo fled through an underground tunnel, which took a year to construct but was muted by the 'deafening drilling' of building works directly adjacent to the prison.
