The heirs of the narco Otoniel take over from the Clan del Golfo

• Colombia Capture 'Otoniel', head of the Gulf Clan and the most wanted drug dealer in Colombia

• Colombia The narco-burial of the Colombian guerrilla in the middle of the quarantine

They have already made their presence felt and their desire for revenge for the capture of Otoniel Úsuga.

The AGC (Autodefensas Gaitanistas de Colombia / Clan del Golfo) murdered

on Monday morning

and left three wounded in two attacks on the Army in Antioquia, the region where they were born and are strongest.

"In the Caracolí village, in the Turbo municipality, motorized units were attacked with explosives and rifle bursts," the aforementioned military institution reported. "In another cowardly criminal action, in the village of La Francia, in Ituango, a military unit was harassed by members of the same armed group."

The Police, for their part, do not rule out a new

as they call the murders of agents anywhere in the country. Both Wilmer Antonio Quiroz, alias

and Yobanis Ávila Villadiego, alias

must take revenge just as their boss did when they arrested or dismissed one of their lieutenants. And one of the two will be his replacement, although Chiquito Malo was considered the second in command and the probable heir to the throne.

Like Otoniel, he comes from the AUC (United Self-Defense Forces of Colombia), but he comes from the Banana Block, which always had a great impact in the Urabá region, the area assigned to him and where he moves freely. Responsible for cocaine trafficking and planning attacks against the public force, both he and Siopas, who

and is now trying to expand their dominions in the Pacific, have enough experience to continue the business and export the white powder to half the world, Spain included.

The ACGs have a federated structure and this newspaper, which has known them in different municipalities, considers it unlikely that Iván Duque's prediction that Otoniel's arrest meant the end of the mafia gang will come true.

according to the Military Forces, almost the same number of members who have arrested them or have died since their presentation in society, and new heads always appear.

They live very well from illegal gold mining, drug trafficking and extortions

against merchants and ranchers, they have enormous capacity to corrupt or intimidate authorities, and there is never the slightest intention of abandoning everything and letting the guerrillas take their place.

As for Otoniel, he went from being the most wanted capo, a dubious honor he shared with Gentil Duarte of the FARC, to becoming the most guarded and desired inmate. Three security rings, in charge of the Tactical Antiterrorist Group of Dijín (Directorate of Criminal Investigation and Interpol), protect the building of said police force, located in the middle of El Dorado Avenue, one of the main arteries of Bogotá. And, in addition to counting on the technical collaboration of the United States and Great Britain, they

to ensure that the Gaitanista Self-Defense Forces of Colombia do not attempt any operation to free the detainee.

The precautions may seem excessive when it comes to the capital, but

with a ruthless criminal who has six final convictions and more than a hundred pending cases, both in Colombia and in North America.

Hence, now the war passes from the jungle mountains to the political and judicial arena.

While Duque

answer for the huge tons of cocaine he sent to that country and then appear before the Colombian justice, part of the political opposition demands that the route be just the opposite.

First, in his native country, for the countless atrocities committed over thirty years and, later, that he goes to federal courts.

"His anticipated extradition

and the lack of interest in reforming it. Cooperation with the United States should be a complementary tool, but it should not replace the Colombian justice system," the presidential candidate wrote on Monday. Sergio Fajardo, who asked to leave him in Colombia. And although the Colombian Supreme Court will have the last word, it will not be easy to deny Duque extradition.

"If the request meets all the requirements, the Court has no other option to endorse it," criminal lawyer Francisco Bernate tells EL MUNDO.

Alternatives because the person has not made reparation to the victims in Colombia or has not told the whole truth, are not viable in the extradition proceedings because the Court would be overstepping and abrogating powers that are not legally established. "
