World Briefing | The Americas: Jos? Cuitl?huac Salinas, Mexico?s Top Mob Prosecutor, Resigns

The nation?s top organized crime prosecutor abruptly resigned Thursday, a month after revelations of an investigation into several officials for leaking information to the nation?s largest drug trafficking organization.

A spokesman for the office denied any link to the investigation and said Mr. Salinas had recently been sick.
