Pepe Aguilar recently broke his silence regarding the shocking shooting that occurred near his ranch in Zacatecas<\/strong>, involving his daughter \u00c1ngela Aguilar and son-in-law Christian Nodal. In an interview with Tony Dandrades<\/strong>, he voiced his concerns about the escalating violence in Mexico, particularly following the capture and subsequent death of Nemesio Oseguera Cervantes<\/strong>, also known as \u201cEl Mencho<\/strong>,\u201d leader of the Jalisco New Generation Cartel (CJNG).<\/p>\n During the interview, Aguilar described how the incident unfolded close to his El Soyate ranch<\/strong>. He refrained from discussing specific details of the shooting, choosing instead to highlight the general vulnerability<\/strong> that all Mexicans face in the current climate of violence.<\/p>\n \u201cWhat you mention only shows that we are all vulnerable… some more than others, but I hope this situation will soon pass,\u201d Aguilar stated. <\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n He expressed frustration at the rising violence impacting families across the nation.<\/p>\n Aguilar’s remarks came amidst a nationwide wave of tension<\/strong>, especially after \u201cEl Mencho\u201d was killed in a military operation in Jalisco just days after his capture. This ignited a series of blockades and confrontations across multiple states, underscoring the broader issues of insecurity plaguing Mexico.<\/p>\n \u201cAlthough the attack impacted my family, it reflects a larger problem that we all face,\u201d he stated, emphasizing that the issue permeates far beyond his personal experiences.<\/p>\n Amid the chaos, Aguilar articulated his deep longing for peace in Mexico:<\/p>\n \u201cI hope that Mexico soon reaches peace, which good people deserve,\u201d he said earnestly. <\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n He implored those in power to make wise decisions for the betterment of the country.<\/p>\n The violent clash began on February 12 on federal highway 54<\/strong>, near Tayahua<\/strong>, when the Zacatecas Immediate Reaction Force (FRIZ) engaged with suspected members of the CJNG. This led to an armed response from civilians, causing a violent exchange of gunfire and improvised explosive devices.<\/p>\n During this turmoil, \u00c1ngela Aguilar and Christian Nodal<\/strong> unwittingly found themselves caught in the crossfire, but officials later confirmed they were not direct targets. The couple was safely escorted to the airport following the incident.<\/p>\n In the interview, Aguilar also touched on the attacks<\/strong> his children, \u00c1ngela and Leonardo, face on social media. He noted that while he is accustomed to criticism, exposure to public scrutiny can be particularly challenging for them. <\/p>\n Drawing strength from his father\u2019s legacy, he has sought to guide his children through these difficult times.<\/p>\n When asked about a possible reconciliation with his son Emiliano, Aguilar maintained a hopeful outlook:<\/p>\n “I am always going to wish my children the best in life. If the best thing for him is to reconcile with me, then so be it.”<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n Aguilar\u2019s insights not only highlight his personal experiences but also reflect a widespread concern for the safety and future of families throughout Mexico.<\/p>\nThe Incident<\/h3>\n
