Mexico City (AFP) - Mexican authorities have recaptured fugitive drug kingpin Joaquin "El Chapo" Guzman, six months after his prison break, President Enrique Pena Nieto said on Friday, triumphantly declaring "mission accomplished."

Mexican marines have conducted extensive operations in the northwestern states of Sinaloa and Durango in search of Guzman since the 58-year-old drug lord's spectacular July 11 escape.

But neither Pena Nieto nor other authorities gave immediate details about the location and day of the Sinaloa drug cartel leader's arrest.
