Last week, amid the noise generated by the Errejón scandal, we learned that in mid-October Largest stash of cocaine in Spanish history seized by the National Police and the Customs Surveillance Service.
It happened in the port of Algeciras and the route was the most common for transporting large quantities of cocaine to the Iberian Peninsula: Ecuador-Spain. There were 13 tons of drugs hidden in banana crates, a multi-million dollar business with a lot of blood behind it.
Criminal organizations look askance at the port of Malagabecause it is not excluded that one day these amounts will be visible. Or maybe a mafia already got there because you never know.
The importer of this cocaine is a company from Alicante created in 2018 and with more than 100 shipments of bananas from Ecuador to Spain.. The two directors of the company are sought and captured. It is clear that they were in a hurry and when they learned that the drugs had been seized, they did not want to give any explanation to the authorities. This operation has not been officially presented as it is still open and more data will be collected.
What we know is that Ecuadorian criminal organizations are very well established here, which means that Mexican cartels and the Albanian mafia are also present.. To move 13,000 kilos of cocaine requires a lot of money and, so far, no one has been arrested.
Alongside this large cache, a Tiguerones leader was arrested in a residential area of Segur de Calafell (Tarragona). It is about William Alcivarbetter known as Commander Willy, a guy who used his own daughter as a human shield to avoid arrest. To stop them, even the Civil Guard UEI had to intervene.
Los Tiguerones is an Ecuadorian criminal organization dedicated to drug trafficking and can also be considered narcoterrorists. It is a split from another major mafia, the Choneros. Commander Willy belonged to the Choneros and founded the Tiguerones. Noticing the insecurity situation in Ecuador caused by themselves, he decided to flee to Spain.
From there he ordered the famous assault on TC Televisión in which dozens of hooded gunmen were seen entering a live broadcast and sending threatening messages.
This mafia is responsible for hundreds of murders, dozens of attacks and the execution of prosecutors responsible for investigating drug trafficking.. The Tiguerones are critical to the success of an international drug trafficking operation in Ecuador, as they control ports like Guayaquil or Puerto Bolívar, where the majority of cocaine shipments to Europe now leave.
He Puerto Bolivar It is located in the province of Oro in Ecuador and this place is essential for criminal organizations because it is a banana growing area and from there the fruits in which the drugs are camouflaged are exported.
This month, very serious explosive attacks took place in Machala. It is the city which depends on this banana port and More than 90 people were murdered in Oro province last month.is the historical record. And after this large cache seized in Spain, the situation is unlikely to ease.
