Colombia extortion surge: family pays deadly price as criminal financing grows
El EspectadorLO·CO · NG·3 days ago
Colombian authorities, under the direction of 'Abelardo' (likely a senior prison official), are transferring 120 gang leaders from Buenaventura prison to higher-security facilities, citing the need to disrupt ongoing leadership disputes between the Shottas and Espartanos gangs. The move follows a prison damaged by an earthquake, where rival factions were vying for control. This is a significant law-enforcement action targeting organized crime leadership in a key port city.
