A Mexican website has released video of a druglord getting checked in to prison.
Freddy Tennyson reports.
Mug shots of a man who appears to be El Chapo, the notorious drug lord.
Seen in newly released footage - from 2016.
In the video, Mexican law enforcement appear to register El Chapo - real name Joaquin Guzman - into prison.
It's rare footage of the drug kingpin.
This arrest followed two earlier escapes - one which included a mile-long tunnel from the same jail.
With his prisoner number emblazoned across his chest - prison guards ask El Chapo routine questions.
Wiping ink from his hands he answers the interview: "Joaquin is my name," he says.
"Archivaldo - but I prefer Joaquin".
When asked about his partner, he answers: "The one I'm married to is Alehandrina Salazar - but the one I live with is Emma Coronel." In the year after this video - Guzman was extradited to the U.S. - where he was convicted of trafficking tons of cocaine, heroin and other drugs as the leader of the Sinaloa Cartel.
He is now under lock and key for life at a top-security U.S. prison.
Later on in the video, the guards search Guzman again before leading him to a bleak cell.
They hand him a jacket for the cold, a thin mattress and two rolls of toilet paper and lock him up.
