Regarding his links with the Romanian mafia, Interpol stated that he was part of a gang dedicated to drug trafficking to that country.
Interpol Chile arrested in Peñaflor, in the Metropolitan Region, at a 54-year-old Chilean drug trafficker who was part of the Romanian mafia.
The individual, who was widely wanted in Europe, is expected to be extradited in the coming weeks.
Commissioner Ricardo Micaly, from the National Central Office (OCN) of Interpol Chile, explained to MegaNoticias that “in 2006, in the month of October, while planning to leave Peru for Holland, “He was caught transporting two kilos of cocaine hidden in golf clubs and in orthopedic elements, crutches.”
After serving a two-year prison sentence, he was expelled to Chile. It was in the meantime that “as he required it for the investigation that had been carried out for the crime in Romania, a red notice was published for his international capture.”
Regarding his links with the Romanian mafia, Interpol stated that he was part of a gang dedicated to drug trafficking to that country.
“But this subject, prior to that, had been an international criminal, but dedicated to another area, the crime of robbery,” added Ricardo Micaly, who indicated that he subsequently focused on activities “related to illicit drug trafficking.”
The Interpol representative specified that the detainee “will be placed at the disposal of the corresponding court tomorrow (Thursday), where The legality of the detention will be verified, and later the Supreme Court will verify with what precautionary measure he will remain pending his extradition.”
