Cali authorities execute Operation Iron 2.0 to dismantle criminal structures
In a massive security operation known as Operation Iron 2.0, Colombian authorities conducted raids across eight communes in Cali, as well as in Jamundí and Candelaria. The operation, involving approximately 2,000 personnel from the National Police, the Army, and the Prosecutor General’s Office, resulted in more than 100 arrests and the dismantling of 11 criminal structures.
Among those detained are the final two suspects allegedly involved in the July 2026 feminicide of María Camila Potosí, an eight-month pregnant woman. The two new detainees, identified as Camilo Moncayo Solano and Ángelo Ochoa Ríos, were apprehended in Cali and Jamundí. They face charges of aggravated feminicide for their alleged role in the crime and the subsequent concealment of the victim's body.
Cali Mayor Alejandro Éder stated that the arrests bring the total number of individuals in custody for the Potosí case to seven, asserting that all responsible parties for the homicide have been captured.
