These are the modern-day Mexican molls who flaunt their luxurious lifestyles reportedly paid for by their gangster boyfriends from one of the country’s most dangerous cartels.

The women, identified by local media as Valeria Diaz and Elizabeth Estrada in reports, are believed to be the partners of Alexis Martinez, alias ‘El Alexis’ and his companion ‘El Perky’, who were recently arrested on suspicion of being important members of the La Union Tepito cartel in the Mexican capital, Mexico City.

The women flaunt their lavish lifestyle on social media and can be seen posing in designer brands in the pictures.

Moll Valeria Diaz can be seen taking a photo in a bikini holding a Louis Vuitton bag and another photo shows her in a full Adidas tracksuit complete with trainers from the German brand.

In another picture she can be seen posing on a dance floor covering her face with a Gucci cap and a Louis Vuitton handbag over her shoulder.

Other images show Elizabeth Estrada posing in a bikini with gold necklaces and her showing off a pair of Louis Vuitton sunglasses with a handbag from the same brand below.

Reports state the girls were arrested alongside their boyfriends in the luxury villas they rented in the upscale Alvaro Obregon area in the Mexican capital.

Martinez is believed to have been the cartel’s chief financial operator with ‘El Perky’ said to have been a drug trafficker for them.

It is unclear if the suspects have been released since their arrest.

The La Union Tepito gang are linked with a wave of violence in Mexico City as well as drug trafficking, kidnappings, blackmails and murders.
