Communicators traveled that sector of the center of the capital, where they made a report on gangs of micro-trafficking and sexual exploitation, when some men on motorcycles, the journalist conducting the investigation said on the newscast, alerted them to their presence in the area.

In the video published by the newsletter you can see precisely how one of the motorcyclists gestures to indicate that the journalists were recording with his camera from inside the car in which they moved through one of the streets where sex workers offered their services.

According to the informants, the media outlet indicated, the man who made the signs is one of those in charge of alerting about the transit of strangers in the area, where they were appearing -according to the same communicator who made the report- more men on motorcycles surrounding the journalists’ vehicle.

In another of the shots made by the Noticias Caracol team, it is seen when a woman leans out of a door and throws what appears to be a plastic bottle at the car of the communication medium.

The journalist making the report cites experts according to which “Not everyone enters these areas, because billions of pesos are moved, the product of the so-called criminal income that the gangs that operate on the site jealously guard ”.

In the Noticias Caracol investigation that took the communicators to the Santa Fe sector, videos are collected that would evidence the anxiety that is lived not only in that area, on behalf of different criminal gangs that commit crimes in the city, but also in Bogotá towns such as Suba, Ciudad Bolívar, San Cristóbal, Chapinero and Kennedy.

In the latter, according to the newscast, 3 of the most important micro-trafficking gangs in the capital operate, made up of Colombians and Venezuelans: Los costeños, Los amarilos and Los naranjas, criminal groups that -adds the media outlet- fight criminal businesses with blood and fire in La Favorita, in Kennedy.

These types of gangs, according to the analyst Ariel Ávila in the same media, “have displaced prostitutes, trans women, boys who work in this” in the tolerance zone of Santa Fe, a sector that “has been colonized by this type of criminal organizations led by Venezuelans.”

This is the Noticias Caracol report where the situation experienced by journalists from that medium is evident:
