Emma Coronel, 'El Chapo' Wife, Files Lawsuit Because Conjugal Visits Were Cut In Half

Joaquin "El Chapo" Guzman is not only having his freedom stripped away but time alone with his wife as well. It is being reported that the drug cartel's wife is furious that the couple's conjugal visits have been cut.

According to FOX News Latino, Emma Coronel, El Chapo's wife is complaining that authorities have gone a little too far. They cut the drug lord's conjugal visits from four hours down to two.

Coronel, the mother of twin daughters with Guzmán, told media Monday outside the commission's Mexico City office that she had just filed the complaint charging that Guzmán suffers from declining health.

In a lawsuit, Coronel expressed her concerns with the lack of romantic time to Mexico's National Human Rights Commission. She also complains that Guzman is being denied visits by lawyersand family members, being subjected to torture and that he is on the brink of losing his mind.

The commissioner of Mexico’s National Security Commission, however, refuted Coronel’s claims. He said Guzmán has to be watched closely because he twice has broken out of prison.

The site reports that El Chapo has been complaining that he's constantly monitored by three guards, his communication with the outside world is severly restricted and his health and sanity are detriorating.

Commissioner Renato Sales Heredia said that Guzmán is given time to exercise in the prison yard and added that his wife has visited him 35 times, his lawyers 33 and that he’s also had numerous visits from his daughters, sisters and other family members.

“His health condition is OK – acceptable for any 60-year-old man,”Renato said, according to Excelsior. “We are open to his family members going to Human Rights and have them set up an office in detention centers in coming years so they can monitor the rights of every single inmate.”
