\u00bfTendr\u00e1 un impacto significativo en el crimen organizado la muerte de Ni\u00f1o Guerrero, fundador del Tren de Aragua?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00bfLa captura del hermano de alias \u201cFito\u201d, l\u00edder de Los Choneros, en Ecuador podr\u00eda mejorar la situaci\u00f3n de seguridad en el pa\u00eds?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00bfY qu\u00e9 candidato presidencial colombiano lograr\u00e1 convencer a los votantes en materia de seguridad durante la segunda vuelta electoral?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Las tres principales historias de crimen organizado de esta semana, en On the Radar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. L\u00edder del Tren de Aragua muere en operaci\u00f3n de Estados Unidos en Venezuela<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Ni\u00f1o Guerrero<\/a> fue el blanco m\u00e1s reciente de los ataques con misiles de Estados Unidos en la regi\u00f3n, esta vez en una operaci\u00f3n conjunta con Venezuela en el estado Bol\u00edvar, en el sur del pa\u00eds. Muri\u00f3 la semana pasada, poniendo fin a una carrera criminal<\/a> que lo llev\u00f3 de ladr\u00f3n com\u00fan y vendedor de drogas a fundador de la banda carcelaria conocida como Tren de Aragua<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sin embargo, el impacto de la muerte de Ni\u00f1o Guerrero podr\u00eda estar siendo sobreestimado. Esta misma semana, una nueva expansi\u00f3n del Tren de Aragua en Brasil acapar\u00f3 titulares, una se\u00f1al de que la organizaci\u00f3n sigue activa m\u00e1s all\u00e1 de su fundador. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Si desea conocer m\u00e1s, lea nuestra cobertura sobre el ascenso y ca\u00edda de Ni\u00f1o Guerrero<\/a>, as\u00ed como nuestro an\u00e1lisis sobre por qu\u00e9 es poco probable que su muerte afecte de manera significativa a una banda ya profundamente fragmentada, especialmente tras su expansi\u00f3n a pa\u00edses como Per\u00fa y Chile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Capturan en Colombia a hermano de alias \u2018Fito\u2019, l\u00edder de Los Choneros de Ecuador<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Javier Mac\u00edas Villamar, alias \u201cJavi\u201d, hermano de Jos\u00e9 Adolfo Mac\u00edas Villamar, alias \u201cFito<\/a>\u201d, l\u00edder de Los Choneros<\/a> de Ecuador, fue capturado en Colombia. Javi ten\u00eda una alerta roja de Interpol y viv\u00eda en Colombia bajo una identidad falsa. Su hermano Fito, probablemente el l\u00edder criminal m\u00e1s famoso en la historia de Ecuador, fue extraditado a Estados Unidos en julio de 2025 para enfrentar cargos por tr\u00e1fico de drogas y armas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

La captura de Javi, junto con las condenas por lavado de activos dictadas en mayo de 2026 contra la pareja sentimental de Fito y otros cinco familiares, probablemente tendr\u00e1 un fuerte impacto sobre el n\u00facleo financiero y operativo de Los Choneros, y podr\u00eda acelerar a\u00fan m\u00e1s la fragmentaci\u00f3n del grupo criminal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. Seguridad, drogas y paz marcan la segunda vuelta presidencial en Colombia<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

El conservador Abelardo de la Espriella y el izquierdista Iv\u00e1n Cepeda, quienes ofrecen visiones opuestas sobre el futuro de Colombia<\/a> en materia de seguridad, drogas y paz, se enfrentar\u00e1n este fin de semana en la segunda vuelta presidencial<\/a> del pa\u00eds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cepeda apuesta por la paz y se enfrenta al exabogado y admirador de Trump, de la Espriella, quien ha prometido desatar a las fuerzas de seguridad contra todos los actores ilegales de Colombia. El pueblo colombiano deber\u00e1 decidir si quiere adoptar enfoques de seguridad m\u00e1s duros o mantener el rumbo hacia la paz.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
