Guido Fernando Rodríguez Vargas
Guido Fernando Rodríguez Vargas, alias 'Comandante 7', is a notorious criminal captured on September 10 in Soacha, Cundinamarca, Colombia. He was apprehended by the Colombian National Police in coordination with Ecuador's National Intelligence Center, as he was wanted in Ecuador for homicide and organized crime. Rodríguez Vargas is linked to the criminal group 'Los Tiguerones' and served as a key transnational connection between Colombia and Ecuador, responsible for managing illicit revenues to support the organization's operations. His capture is significant as it follows the designation of Los Tiguerones as a foreign terrorist organization by the United States.
