The arrests of the alleged key leaders from both organizations weakened their control over territory and illegal markets, creating opportunities for new groups to emerge.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Prosecutors trace the beginning of the Menores to April 2020 in the 7 de Septiembre neighborhood of northwestern Rosario. The group expanded into other parts of Rosario through territorial disputes, alliances, selective killings, and armed attacks against rivals, according to local <a href=\"https:\/\/sumapolitica.com.ar\/el-ascenso-de-los-menores-y-la-nueva-configuracion-del-crimen-en-rosario\/\">investigations<\/a>, building strength primarily through cocaine and marijuana dealing. It later diversified into illegal gambling, money laundering, weapons trafficking, and criminal economies linked to the Rosario Central soccer club\u2019s fan group, <em>barra brava<\/em>, including drug sales and ticket scalping.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Menores also relied on flexible alliances with other criminal groups to expand its reach and operations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It began appearing more frequently in police investigations into violent incidents in Rosario starting in 2022, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rosario3.com\/policiales\/Quienes-son-Los-Menores-la-banda-sospechada-de-haber-asesinado-a-Andres-Pillin-Bracamonte-20241111-0038.html\">gained<\/a> national attention following the November 2024 murders of Andr\u00e9s Bracamonte, alias \u00abPill\u00edn,\u00bb and Daniel Attardo, alias \u00abRana,\u00bb leaders of the Rosario Central fan club. Investigators linked members of the Menores to the killings and are examining whether the murders were motivated by efforts to gain influence over the area and the illicit economies surrounding the football club.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-who-leads-the-menores\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Who Leads<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/insightcrime.org\/es\/noticias-crimen-organizado-ecuador\/los-choneros\/#h-who-leads-the-choneros\"><strong>the Menores?<\/strong><\/a><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Menores is led by Mat\u00edas Ignacio Gazzani, with several organizers who coordinate specific criminal activities. Gazzani&nbsp; has been on the run since February 2024, and currently tops Santa Fe\u2019s list of most wanted fugitives. He is wanted for drug sales, illicit association, threats, intimidation, and armed attacks, and as well as the 2024 double murder.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Lisandro Dami\u00e1n Contreras, alias <a href=\"https:\/\/www.santafe.gob.ar\/index.php\/web\/content\/view\/full\/257319\">\u201cLicha\u201d or \u201cLim\u00f3n,\u201d was another senior Menores leader<\/a>. He was captured in December 2024 in Tigre, Buenos Aires province. Local media described him as one of the organization\u2019s top figures, and although his arrest dealt a significant blow to the group, it continues to play an important role in Rosario\u2019s criminal landscape.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-where-do-the-menores-operate\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a href=\"https:\/\/insightcrime.org\/es\/noticias-crimen-organizado-ecuador\/los-choneros\/#h-where-do-the-choneros-operate\"><strong>Where Do<\/strong><\/a> The<a href=\"https:\/\/insightcrime.org\/es\/noticias-crimen-organizado-ecuador\/los-choneros\/#h-where-do-the-choneros-operate\"><strong> Menores Operate?<\/strong><\/a><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The <a href=\"https:\/\/tn.com.ar\/policiales\/2024\/11\/11\/quienes-son-y-como-operan-los-menores-la-banda-narco-investigada-por-el-crimen-de-pillin-bracamonte\/\">organization<\/a> operates mainly in northwestern Rosario, and its main strongholds are the neighborhoods of 7 de Septiembre, La Tablada, Villa Bombacha, Ema\u00fas, Stella Maris, and Hostal del Sol.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Alleged leader Gazzani coordinates a kind of \u201cnarco cooperative\u201d that brings together several smaller criminal groups and actors involved in illicit activities, according to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lanacion.com.ar\/seguridad\/los-menores-un-nuevo-clan-emerge-para-ocupar-el-lugar-de-los-monos-a-partir-de-la-brutal-fuerza-de-nid06092025\/?utm_source=chatgpt.com\">media reports<\/a> citing judicial and government sources. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lanacion.com.ar\/seguridad\/quien-es-matias-gazzani-el-narco-profugo-por-el-que-ofrecen-una-millonaria-recompensa-nid23072025\/?utm_source=chatgpt.com\">Investigators<\/a> believe the criminal network coordinated by Gazzani has begun moving quantities of cocaine that exceed the needs of Rosario\u2019s local drug market, with operations reportedly expanding toward the Buenos Aires metropolitan area and C\u00f3rdoba province.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It remains unclear whether the Menores have expanded into Buenos Aires or C\u00f3rdoba provinces in a way that goes beyond temporary criminal partnerships.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-who-are-the-menores-allies-and-enemies\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Who Are the Menores\u2019 Allies and Enemies?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Menores have built a network of alliances with other criminal groups to expand their influence and compete for illicit markets in Rosario. Among their main allies are actors linked to the <a href=\"https:\/\/insightcrime.org\/es\/noticias\/rivales-trono-clan-alvarado-argentina-puede-ser-amenaza-monos\/\">Alvarado Clan<\/a> and the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rosario3.com\/policiales\/Fran-Riquelme-y-su-banda-en-la-mira-quienes-son-los-enemigos-de-Los-Monos-en-la-zona-noroeste----20220922-0051.html\">Riquelme Clan<\/a>, both of which have historically been at odds with sectors of the Monos.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Santino Alvarado, the current leader of the Alvarado Clan and son of Esteban Lindor Alvarado, has been described as an ally of the Menores, <a href=\"https:\/\/cenital.com\/el-clasico-enfermo-de-rosario-del-crimen-de-ivana-a-las-sanciones-a-los-chicos-de-newells\/?utm_source=chatgpt.com\">according to reports<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">These alliances have reinforced the Menores\u2019 rivalry with the Monos, its main rival, especially in northwestern Rosario. However, the relationship between the two groups is not exclusively confrontational.

Its flexible structure and ability to forge alliances with other criminal actors have helped the group withstand arrests and law enforcement pressure.
