He explained that they overheard a conversation, “and we said that they are going to come here and come in a boat, which had six 150 horsepower engines, had only four installed, they had two spare engines.”

“We started chasing them with two boats, caught up with them and forced them to stop, they are 3,077 kilos and we captured eight people. They came from La Guajira in Colombia and brought the drug trafficking route, the route that Gideon used (the criminals),” he said in his Con El Mazo Dando program, broadcast number 537.
