Zapopan

The band, Los Alegres del Barranco, projected a likeness of the secretive capo during a concert Saturday at the Telmex Auditorium in Zapopan, a suburb of Guadalajara, triggering protests.

The band fell foul of both the US and the Mexican authorities on Saturday when they displayed an image of El Mencho during their concert in the Mexican city of Zapopan.

Lara came to the U.S. in 1992 from Zapopan, a town in the state of Jalisco, Mexico.

The dismembered remains were found on 31 May in dozens of black bags ditched at the bottom of a deep ravine in Zapopan, in western Jalisco state.

The mayor of Zapopan, where the call centre is located, said the business operated illegally and "did not have any licences".
