{{U.S. officials have deported a woman believed to be the daughter of Mexico’s most wanted drug lord.}}
Alejandrina Gisselle Guzman Salazar was deported on Tuesday, her lawyer said, a day after she pleaded guilty in federal court to possession of a false visa.
Shortly after Guzman Salazar’s arrest in October, a U.S. federal official said she was the daughter of Joaquin “El Chapo” Guzman, who authorities have said heads Mexico’s Sinaloa cartel.
On Wednesday, her lawyers declined to comment on whether she was related to the accused drug lord.
“I don’t know the answer to that, and it wasn’t part of the case. … We never asked, because it wasn’t relevant, whether it was true or not,” attorney Guadalupe Valencia said.
