Military officers raided a home in western Mexico and seized a cache of weapons, drugs and plastic-wrapped American dollars belonging to country's most powerful cartel.

The military unit was anonymously tipped off to the presence of suspected armed members of the Jalisco New Generation Cartel in Jalisco, Guadalajara, earlier this week.

According to the Jalisco Attorney General's office, the operation at the farm house in the municipality of Zapopan led to the seizure of 48 military assault rifles, 71 guns and ammunition.

Agents also confiscated 17 grenades, three bags of explosive and nine electrical detonators.

An anonymous tip from a resident in the western Mexican state of Guadalajara led the military to a farm home where a cartel had stashed 20 kilos of phenacetin, 13 kilos of cocaine, 11 kilos of methamphetamine, 206 grams of heroin and 50 grams of fentanyl

The Jalisco Attorney General's office said it seized $208,951 USD and almost $1.1million Mexican pesos, approximately $57,500 USD, hidden inside a safety deposit box

The military men also found $208,951 USD and almost 1.1million Mexican pesos, approximately $57,500 USD, that were hidden inside a safety deposit box.

The investigation also led to the seizure of drugs that included 20 kilos of phenacetin, 13 kilos of cocaine, 11 kilos of methamphetamine, 206 grams of heroin and 50 grams of fentanyl.

Two men, aged 26 and 27, were arrested after they tried to escape. Their names were not released to the press.

The Mexican government has been committed to dismantling the Jalisco New Generation Cartel since President Andrés Manuel López Obrador took office December 2018.

Mexico has been on the manhunt for Nemesio “El Mencho" Oseguera Cervantes, the group's leader since 2015, reportedly spending 7. 659million Mexican pesos as part of 'Operation Jalisco' to bring him in.

The U.S. also wants the 52-year-old and has offered a $10million reward for his capture.

Under El Mencho's leadership, the Jalisco New Generation Cartel has unleashed a wave of terror that has left thousands of innocent victims dead.

The syndicate has taken the war to the three levels of the Mexican police force and its military as well as small-time dealers and rival organizations that include the Sinaloa Cartel - once led by El Chapo - and the Zetas.

The Jalisco New Generation Cartel, which is the most powerful cartel in Mexico, has been embroiled in an ongoing turf war with the Santa Rosa de Lima Cartel over which group controls the illicit sale of gasoline.
