Kick and Twitch streamer Cheesur is suddenly at the center of a huge online storm. The viral post claimed he provided “critical intelligence” that helped Mexican forces track down and kill drug cartel leader Nemesio Rubén Oseguera Cervantes, also known as “El Mencho.” The theory spread quickly after reports emerged that El Mencho had died during a military operation in Mexico. But there is no evidence that Cheeseur played any role in the operation. Mexican authorities did not name him and there were no official reports linking him to the mission. For now, the story linking him to El Mencho is based solely on social media chatter and not confirmed facts.El Mencho, 59, is the leader of the Jalisco New Generation cartel, also known as the CJNG. Mexican officials said he was seriously injured during a clash with security forces in the town of Tapalpa, Jalisco state, and later died on a plane to hospital. After the operation, violence broke out in several areas as cartel members reacted. As the real news comes to light, Cheeser’s name starts trending, and that’s where the confusion begins.
how Nelmin Zaferovich known as Cheeseur, linked to El Mencho and CJNG rumors
Cheesur’s real name is Nermin Dzaferovic. He is 23 years old and lives in Jacksonville, Florida. He started streaming on Twitch in 2019, mainly playing NBA 2K. Over time, he built a following on both Twitch and Kick, and now has approximately 142,000 followers on each platform.His connection to El Mencho rumors dates back to November 2024. At the time, Cheeseur posted a strong message on X targeting the cartel leaders. The post quickly went viral. Soon after, he briefly disappeared from social media. A missing persons flyer with his real name and details began to circulate online. He later returned and said his identity had been stolen.That incident has stayed in people’s minds. Then in February 2026, reports alerted the public that the U.S. government was offering a $15 million reward for information leading to El Mencho’s arrest. Around the same time, Cheeseur made comments online suggesting he would claim the reward. Some viewers thought he was joking. Others believed he was serious.So when the Mexican army declared El Mencho dead, social media users took it upon themselves to connect the dots. Old posts reappear. The clip has been shared again. Some users even claimed he provided “critical intelligence.”However, there have been no official statements from Mexican authorities, the U.S. government or law enforcement to support this claim. As of now, there is zero verified evidence linking Cheeseur to this military operation.Cheesur has faced controversies unrelated to this situation in the past, including online controversy and criticism of fundraisers. Because of this history, his name often comes to people’s attention quickly.Still, being mentioned alongside one of the world’s most dangerous cartel leaders is a serious matter. So far, what has been confirmed is simple: El Mencho was killed during a military operation in Mexico. The claims about Cheeseur have not been confirmed and are not supported by official sources.
