I don’t think they always need to stay hidden, not currently in Mexico, at least.
IIRC, few years ago, the son of el Chapo was arrested. His men started to create chaos in the city, I think they even kidnapped a couple of police men until he was released?. Because he was, actually, released. It was ordered by the president, AMLO. Who seems quite friendly with cartels: there’s a video of him hugging his mother and he said a famous sentence about hugs instead of bullets to fight against them.
Months later, at least one cop responsible for the detention was killed in his house.
Maybe I don’t remember all the details correctly, but you get the idea.
