The Mexican drug lord is being held in a New York prison cell 23 hours a day with the lights on at all times, according to letter from the human rights group
Held without access to sunlight or his relatives, Mexican drug lord Joaquín “El Chapo” Guzmán is under more restrictive captivity than any other US prisoner, his court-appointed lawyers said on Thursday.
Mexico extradited Guzmán, who is the head of Sinaloa cartel, to New York in January, a few hours before President Donald Trump took office. Guzmán, who escaped from two Mexican prisons and was a key figure in a bloody drug war, is seen as a flight risk by the US government.
