(CNN) -- Mexican special forces troops have arrested a lieutenant for alleged drug kingpin Joaquin "El Chapo" Guzman, according to the Defense Ministry. Troops arrested Felipe Cabrera Sarabia on Friday in the northwestern state of Sinaloa, CNN.com Mexico reported, citing the Mexican Defense Ministry. Sarabia, who appeared Monday in the office of a prosecutor who specializes in organized crime, was responsible for Guzman's security in the neighboring state of Durango, the state-run Notimex news agency said.

"El Capo" is worth about $1 billion, according to Forbes Magazine, which began listing him on its billionaires list in 2009, much to the consternation of Mexican officials who deplored his inclusion alongside wealthy business people who made their fortunes through legitimate businesses. The magazine lists him as No. 55 on its Most Powerful People list and as the only crime lord on its list of Mexico's top billionaires.
