The narcocaleta was in a luxurious property located on the outskirts of Cali, of more than 1,500 square meters. The country house had been monitored by drones, and Burbano and his court were followed by intelligence officers from the Navy and the police from Ecuador and Colombia.
The intelligence monitoring, monitored by the Colombian Prosecutor’s Office, allowed him to find weaknesses, with which the route was traced to find his whereabouts.
He had an uncontrollable fondness for young women, for alcohol, for $ 2 million shimmering and sequined shirts (like the one he was wearing on the day of his capture) and for ostentatious properties.
