They kidnapped in Cordoba 23 kilos of cocaine with "the seal of the dolphin", brand of origin of the drug of the "Patron of the North"

In Córdoba, Argentine authorities seized approximately 23 kilograms of cocaine marked with the 'delfín' seal, linked to Reynaldo Castedo, known as 'the Patron of the North.' The operation involved the Police of Córdoba and the Federal Anti-drugs Division, uncovering the drugs hidden in packages within a bus’s cargo hold. Two women were detained, and the cocaine was disguised with mustard to evade detection by drug-sniffing dogs. The seizure highlights ongoing efforts to combat drug trafficking networks, despite Castedo's four-year prison sentence. The case underscores the persistent influence of organized crime structures in the region.
