From the IPT:Mexican Arrest Indicates Hizballah Seeking Foothold
2010-07-11
Hizballah is setting up shop along the American border with Mexico, the Kuwaiti newspaper al-Seyassah reports. In an exclusive story, the Kuwaiti daily revealed that Mexican officials have arrested a Mexican national with ties to the Shiite terrorist group.

The militant, Jameel Nasr, was reportedly under police surveillance for a while, with authorities explaining he had traveled from Lebanon to countries throughout South and Central America, eventually gaining citizenship and a job as a graphic engineer in Mexico. While in Mexico, Nasr reportedly traveled frequently to Lebanon to receive information and instructions from Hizballah commanders.

#2  How accurate is this?

No idea. I don't pay attention to arrests unless they come with large amounts of drugs and guns, so it looks like the local press wasn't informed by anyone in the government about the bust.
