In the Valle del Cauca region of Colombia, authorities have seized 2.5 tons of cocaine hidden inside compressed natural gas cylinders during a roadblock operation. The discovery was made by police officers conducting routine traffic checks along the Mediacanoa, La Virginia route, near the municipality of Ansermanuevo. According to official reports, the drug was concealed within 2,500 rectangular packages wrapped in paper vinyl, disguised to resemble the appearance of cocaine. The substance, valued at over 13.9 billion Colombian pesos, was found in a vehicle traveling along the Yumbo, Cartagena highway. The driver was arrested on charges related to trafficking, manufacturing, or possession of narcotics, while the vehicle and a mobile phone were confiscated. The seized drugs await confirmation through a preliminary identification test. The operation marks another success in efforts to disrupt illegal drug networks operating in the area. The seizure took place under the coordination of the National Police’s Transit and Transportation Directorate, which emphasized its ongoing commitment to strengthening security measures along key transportation corridors. Colonel Jair Alonso Parra Archila, head of the department, stated that the confiscation prevented the illicit drug from entering black markets and disrupted the financial gains of criminal organizations engaged in drug trafficking. The captured individual has been handed over to the Attorney General’s Office for further legal proceedings, alongside the evidence collected. This incident underscores the continued presence of organized crime in the region and the effectiveness of law enforcement operations targeting smuggling routes. Meanwhile, in the neighboring municipality of Candelaria, authorities executed a successful operation that resulted in the arrest of one of the most wanted individuals in the area, alias “El Búho”, and the resolution of a murder case within just five days. The operation, conducted in collaboration with the Attorney General’s Office and the municipal government, included raids in the neighborhoods of Poblado Campestre and Villagorgona. During these actions, police recovered three firearms, an improvised explosive device, 35 rounds of ammunition, and 1,400 doses of narcotics ready for distribution. The suspect, identified as a 31-year-old man, is linked to a double homicide committed in January 2026 in Villagorgona, where a woman and her partner were killed. He had previously been processed in 2022 following the dismantling of the criminal group known as “Los Ratones,” accused of seven murders. In a separate development, two brothers suspected of involvement in multiple homicides in Pereira, known as “Megamente” and “Tapasco,” were sent to prison after being charged with aggravated homicide and illegal possession of weapons. The arrests followed four raids in the San Nicolás neighborhood and the La Isla area of Anserma, Caldas. The suspects, part of the armed wing of the criminal organization “La Cordillera,” were allegedly ordered by other high-ranking members of the group. Their arrest is part of the broader Operation Ruptura, aimed at dismantling the network and identifying additional members. Investigations suggest they are connected to at least four other killings in different parts of Pereira’s metropolitan area, including San Nicolás, Samaria, and San Marcos. These incidents are believed to stem from territorial disputes and competition over profits from local drug trade. Authorities continue to expand their investigations into possible international connections of the criminal organization. The operation against the twins represents a critical step in disrupting the structure of “La Cordillera.” Meanwhile, the recent seizures and arrests highlight the persistent challenge posed by organized crime in regions such as the Valle del Cauca and Pereira. Law enforcement agencies remain focused on increasing surveillance and conducting targeted operations to dismantle these networks and ensure public safety.
