Colombian authorities have arrested four people involved in a smuggling network. At the head of this structure, Diego Marín Buitrago, alias “Pitufo” (smurf), is still on the run.

The organization operated in the ports of Buenaventura (west), Cartagena and Santa Marta (north), in complicity with corrupt local officials. Among those arrested are two police officers: Colonel Alexander Galeano and Major Mario Sarmiento.
