The Rich Kids of the Mexican Cartel (koko m.)

Mexico’s most powerful cartel members have taken to social media to show off their lavish lifestyles.

Bikini-clad women, gold-plated guns, wads of cash and big guns are appearing on the social media accounts of Mexican cartel members in a trend thought to be started by the children of fugitive El Chapo.

Using the hashtags #narcos and #narcostyle on Instagram and Twitter, Mexicans have shown off their extravagant tastes.

One image uploaded by the ‘narcoofficial’ account shows a Federal Police car with several bullet holes following a shootout with the Sinaloa Cartel. The caption under it reads: ‘Ha ha ha, nothing happened here’.

It is believed this trend has been started by the children of El Chapo, the current boss of the Sinaloa Cartel who escaped maximum security prison two months ago through a tunnel built by his criminal organisation’s engineering department.
