The drug would have a price of more than 4,800 million Colombian pesos, about US$ 1,181,000, in the international market and would have as its final destination Brazil.
In operations conducted by troops of the Joint Task Force Omega, in coordination with the SIJIN (judicial police), it was possible to find approximately 800 kilograms of marijuana creepy that was carried hidden in a dump truck, in Cartagena del Chairá, in the department of Caquetá.
The finding was possible thanks to the permanent control carried out by the navy in the sector known as Muelle Madera, where this suspicious vehicle was identified onboard a ferryboat on the Caguán River. When the cargo of the dump truck was inspected, 19 sacks full of the narcotic were found by troops by troops, hidden under sand.
This substance would belong to the residual Organized Armed Group, GAO-r, Miller Perdomo structure and according to the assessment made by experts of the National Police, it would have a sales price of more than 4,800 million Colombian pesos in the international market. Apparently it had Brazil as its final destination.
The individual who was transporting the vehicle allegedly to the south of the country was in the same way arrested in flagrante delicto and put into custody of the judicial authorities, as well as the marijuana and the car.
With these operations, Joint Task Force Omega directly attacks the illicit finances of the residual GAO and damages its logistics structure, since it ceases to receive the money of the sale of narcotics. In the same way, transnational crimes are neutralized and substances are prevented from reaching young people in Colombia and the world, hitting the drug trafficking chain at its last link.
