Colombia: Giuseppe Peppe Palermo, an Italian national and a leading figure in the 'ndrangheta mafia, was arrested in Bogotá. Palermo, wanted in 196 countries, faces extradition to Italy on charges of drug trafficking and mafia association.
Palermo was a key intermediary linking the Calabrian mafia with South American drug networks, facilitating large-scale cocaine shipments from Colombia, Peru, and Ecuador to Europe, primarily through the Gioia Tauro port in Italy.
In a coordinated international operation involving Colombia's National Police, Europol, and authorities from Italy and the UK, Palermo was apprehended following extensive surveillance.
Authorities described the arrest as highly significant in disrupting the 'ndrangheta's operations, which control a substantial portion of cocaine trafficking in Europe. The operation also led to the arrest of 21 affiliates in Europe, weakening the mafia's influence in Latin America.

Ecuador: Adolfo Macías, known as Fito, the most notorious drug trafficker in Ecuador, has consented to extradition to the US, where he is charged with cocaine and arms trafficking.
Fito, leader of Los Choneros, a major criminal organization in Ecuador, was recaptured in June 2025 after escaping from a maximum-security prison in January 2024, an event that escalated violence in the country.
His extradition is significant as Ecuador re-established its extradition policies in 2024, marking Fito as the first national to be extradited under the new framework.
The US District Court for the Eastern District of New York, known for handling international crime cases, will oversee his charges, highlighting his role in a transnational criminal organization.

USA: Ovidio Guzmán López, son of infamous Mexican drug lord Joaquín "El Chapo" Guzmán, has pleaded guilty to narcotics trafficking charges in a federal court in Chicago.
Ovidio, also known as "El Ratón", is the first of "El Chapo's" sons to reach a deal with the US government, potentially reducing his sentence from the life imprisonment typical for such charges.
Guzmán admitted to trafficking cocaine, heroin, fentanyl, and chemicals from Mexico to the US using various methods such as trains, tunnels, and planes. Guzmán's collaboration could provide US officials with critical information about the cartel's operations and connections.
