Dairo Antonio Úsuga David, aka ‘Otoniel’, considered Colombia’s most wanted drug trafficker, has finally been captured after a hunt that lasted over a decade. on October 23, as confirmed by the government. Otoniel was the last great heir to the old Cartels demobilized ‘paramilitary’ groups during the rule of Álvaro Uribe. His life was divided between the luxuries enjoyed by the drug lords and the intense hunting by the Colombian security forces, which forced him not to sleep more than a few nights in the same place, to use a network of shelters in the jungle. and to rely solely on couriers for its communications. Read also Otoniel became the absolute leader of the ‘Gulf Clan’, formerly known as the ‘Usuga Clan’, after the previous leader, his brother Juan de Dios Úsuga, aka Giovanny, was killed in a police raid on the night of New Year’s Eve 2010. For the Colombian authorities, the Gulf Clan had become the most powerful criminal organization in the country, capable of operating in many provinces and with an extensive network of international relations. The main activities are drug and human trafficking, extortion and illegal gold mining. The Gulf Clan is believed to have around 1,800 affiliates, largely recruited from far-right paramilitary groups. Its members have been arrested in Argentina, Brazil, Honduras, Peru and Spain. One of the strengths of the Clan is the control of many of the routes used to get drugs from Colombia to the United States and even far more distant countries, such as Russia. The Colombian government, even before Otoniel’s arrest, believed it had dealt decisive blows against the Cartel in recent years, forcing many of its leading exponents to hide in the jungle. Otoniel now faces an impressive array of charges, ranging from drug trafficking to killing police officers to recruiting minors for his criminal activities. After having indicted him in 2009, the US authorities will certainly ask for his extradition.
