Fabio Simón Younes, partner of ‘Jesús Santrich’ is extradited to the US

In 2018 the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Southern District in New York filed charges against Jesus Santrich, one of the leaders of the former Farc guerrilla, Marlon Marín, Fabio Simón Younes Arboleda and Armando Gómez alias The doctor for allegedly conspiring to export 10,000 kilos of cocaine to the United States.

Fabio Simón Younes, 74, was extradited this Friday to answer before a North American jury for the accusations made against him. Among them, who was in charge of looking for planes in the United States to transport the coca and according to the indictment, to make the narco-shipment, Younes was making the connections in Miami.

In November 2018, the defense of the employer Younes had asked the Supreme Court of Justice to suspend the extradition request and send his case to the Special Jurisdiction for Peace (JEP), but the peace court assured that he was not “accredited as a member” of the Farc, so the request was rejected.

While Marlon Marín (nephew of ‘Iván Márquez’) is already in the United States collaborating with the authorities of that country in the judicial process against Jesus Santrich.

In May 2019, the DEA released a longer version of the video that would prove that Santrich is indeed involved with drug trafficking. This, after the resignation of the then Colombian prosecutor Néstor Humberto Martínez, who appeared within the framework of the JEP’s decision to deny the extradition of the ex-guerrilla and request his immediate release.

In the recording, which was not presented to the JEP, Marlon Marín is seen next to Jesus Santrich and two alleged undercover DEA agents.

The four-minute video shows how those involved talk about the alleged shipment of a shipment of coca to the United States of up to five tons.

In the conversation, a man with a Mexican accent is also heard offering resources to Santrich for a ‘campaign’: “These businesses are one thing, but we are also interested in supporting you in the campaign with resources, apart from the business we are doing. We have a construction company. This is apart “, is heard in the video that was shared by the media.

If found guilty, both Marín and the recently extradited Younes, they would face penalties ranging from ten years to life imprisonment according to the US Attorney’s Office., unless they collaborate with relevant information about the case and receive some benefit.
