Boss of the criminal faction is already on its way to Brazil on a flight of the Federal Police and will be sent to a federal prison, although the specific unit has not yet been released
Bolivia’s court ordered on Sunday (18) the expulsion of Marcos Roberto de Almeida, known as Tuta, who leads the criminal faction (first command of the capital). The decision was made during a judicial hearing, which resulted in the order of immediate departure of the trafficker of the Bolivian territory. Tuta is already on its way to Brazil on a flight DAE will be sent to a federal prison, although the specific unit has not yet been released.
The trafficker was arrested last Friday (16) when trying to renew his foreigner registration in Bolivia using false documents. He had been on the run for five years and had already been convicted in Brazil to 12 years in prison for crimes related to criminal organization, money laundering and drug trafficking.
Andrei Rodrigues, general director of the Federal Police, said the arrest of Tuta was communicated to Justice Minister Ricardo Lewandowski. The minister, in turn, passed on the information to President Lula and the Minister of Foreign Affairs, Mauro Vieira. The possibility of extradite the trafficker was discarded, which facilitated its rapid transfer to Brazil.
