Paraguayan law enforcement operations against organizedcrime

Overview

Authorities in Guarambaré, Paraguay, conducted ‘Operativo Drop,’ a series of simultaneous raids on five residences to dismantle a large-scale drug trafficking and money laundering organization.

The operation resulted in the arrest of four individuals with prior criminal records, including Mauricio Gabriel Moisés Aranda Gómez. Eight other individuals, including minors, were detained for questioning as drug consumers.

Law enforcement seized over 1.4 kilograms of cocaine, 1.069 kilograms of marijuana, and 110 grams of crack, which officials estimate would have prevented the sale of approximately 12,000 doses. Additionally, authorities confiscated G. 16,442,000 in cash, firearms, precision scales, and various electronic devices.

Properties, vehicles, and motorcycles suspected to be products of money laundering, with an estimated value of $1,500,000, were seized and placed under the control of Senabico.
