Chile deploys police for high-risk funeral of slain narco leader 'El Poroto'

Following the assassination of Héctor Aladino Cárdenas Venegas, alias 'El Poroto', Chilean authorities have deployed a large police contingent to manage his funeral in Lo Espejo, deemed high-risk. The family lawyer asserts the event will be peaceful, but the killing of a major drug figure and the security response signal potential for retaliatory violence. This is a localized criminal-justice development with no direct market impact.
