The arrested individuals are linked to a drug trafficking network that, in June of this year, had 60 packages of marijuana, a firearm, and cash seized during a raid at the Green Thomas Residential, in the Villa María, El Rosal sector. Upon entering the apartment, which served as a storage and packaging facility for drugs, the authorities located five suitcases, where they seized the packages of the plant, all wrapped in black plastic bags, with a preliminary weight of 61.1 pounds. For the case, registered in June of this 2025, several people are in prison, including Víctor Founder, leader of the international drug trafficking structure.
