MEXICAN DRUG LORD'S BODY STOLEN FROM FUNERAL HOME

One of Mexico's top drug lords was killed by Mexican marines and his body was subsequently stolen from a funeral home by armed men.

Without his body, officials have very little evidence that they killed the leader of the Zetas Cartel, one of the most violent and feared drug cartels.

The corpse of Heriberto Lazcano, founder of the brutal Los Zetas gang, was being stored by the authorities at a funeral parlour in northern Mexico.

Mr Calderon said the drugs boss was killed while resisting arrest, but did not mention the theft of his body.

Infamous for mass killings, the Zetas control key drug-trafficking routes in north-eastern Mexico.
