Pablo Escobar made many enemies during his time. Some of them decided to fight back and formed Los Pepes to take down the Medellín Cartel. Pablo Escobar was one of the most notorious drug lords in the world. Based in Medellin, Colombia, Escobar's brutal reign over the illegal cocaine industry claimed thousands of lives in Colombia alone. His strikes against judges, government officials and the Police were swift and deadly. He even spent time in an opulent prison called the Cathedral, which he built.

But during his journey into the underworld, Escobar made more than a few enemies. One of them was Fidel Castano, a rival drug lord who was perhaps even more brutal than Escobar himself. Castano's "boiling point" occurred when Escobar killed two prominent members of his cartel - Fernando Galeano and Gerardo Moncada - when they visited Escobar at La Catedral. Castano was scheduled to be at that meeting himself, but he declined to go.

Paramilitary chiefs and creators of Los Pepes, Fidel and Carlos Castaño.

"I have to admit that I appreciated Pablo at that time, but not so much that I despised him," Carlos Castaño said in an interview he gave to Semana magazine before his death.

Pablo Escobar was fine until "Los Pepes" appeared.

Fed up with how Escobar was destroying everything the drug cartels had built, Castano took matters into his own hands. He organized Los Pepes, or "Perseguidos por Pablos Escobar", which translates to People Persecuted by Pablo Escobar. Los Pepes received funding from the Cali Cartel, the main rival of Escobar's organization. The CIA and US government even helped Los Pepes try to track down Escobar by relying on Castano's intelligence gathering efforts. Castano opened an office in Medellin where people came and provided information about Escobar's activities. They chased him until they shot him dead.

But Los Pepes were more of a terrorist organization than a paramilitary group. As long as Escobar's interests were hindered or limited, the group didn't care about the collateral damage. In February 1993, the CIA complained that government forces in Colombia were sharing information with Los Pepes.

The group, in turn, used that intelligence to carry out waves of bombings in retaliation for Escobar's own bombings. Because Escobar had contacts in the government, Colombian officials routinely relied on Los Pepes as an extralegal organization to carry out justice without the morals of law enforcement.

A car bomb even nearly killed Escobar's children. Manuela Escobar, his daughter, was partially deafened by the blast. The campaign also targeted Escobar's lawyers, supporters and anyone close to the drug lord.

All of Escobar's opponents gave money. Once Helmer 'Pacho' Herrera, one of the leaders of the Cali Cartel, said that he had spent all his wealth trying to kill Escobar: he invested 30 million dollars. But politicians and businessmen have also donated. They became a certain bureaucratic elite, with the tacit support of many Colombians and who were never discovered.

Los Pepes burned down a country house where he kept works by Spanish artists Picasso and Dalí. And they set his collection of old cars on fire. In March 1993, mercenaries dressed as security forces kidnapped builder Guillermo Londoño White from his home. His corpse appeared the next morning with a sign that read: Servant figure, initiator of kidnappings in the service of Pablo Escobar. Los Pepes.

Days later, other mercenaries, this time clothed, tortured the lawyer Raúl Jairo Zapata Vergara to death. Eventually, Los Pepes forced Escobar into hiding. He was living in Los Olivos, Medellin, in December 1993 when Colombian intelligence intercepted a phone call from the drug lord to his son, Juan Pablo Escobar. Colombian police, as part of the group known as the Search Block, arrived at the house where Escobar lived.

In a scene reminiscent of a Hollywood movie, the drug lord ran across the rooftops in Los Olivos, but Escobar couldn't escape fast enough. Bullets in the leg, torso and ear killed Colombia's most notorious drug cartel leader on December 2, 1993.

Two controversies continue today about Escobar's death. The first is that the police took a photo of Escobar's corpse on the roof, while the second is that Los Pepes took credit for his murder.

But Los Pepes is also mentioned in Albania. Of course, it is not about the same person, but about a similar group that is thought to have been created for an equally important person, the gambling businessman, Ervis Martinaj. Until now, journalists of the black chronicle, who have known Martinaj's activity for a long time, claim that his opponents have done the same.

Artan Hoxha says that: It is a group, a well-prepared group, it has gone to the field four times and accomplished its mission all four times. He did not come out empty-handed. Here in Albania, the 'Los Pepes' unit was created, just like in Colombia for the disappearance of Pablo Escobar. 6 or 7 big groups created this unit, they also accepted the problems between them, they agreed only to get Martinaj and his team out of the game. Law enforcement agencies also became part of this established unit. If the State Police is not a party, it has closed its eyes, leaving the way open for them to reach what they wanted. Why was this done? Because they couldn't break it otherwise. Legally, Martinaj was looking for Duman's testimony that he was going to kill Indrit Dokle, he was sentenced to 3 years and 8 months, the others who are sentenced go to prison, but Martinaj is not. It was not the same for him.

Today he even went further...demanding an account from Prime Minister Edi Rama.

Artan Hoxha has brought back a statement by Prime Minister Edi Rama, made during the campaign for the parliamentary elections, on April 18, 2021. Through a post on his social networks, Artan Hoxha asks Rama to provide information about where they sent him " Los Pepes" (Los Pepes, a name derived from the Spanish phrase "Perseguidos por Pablo Escobar", was a vigilante group made up of Pablo Escobar's enemies) gambling businessman Ervis Martinaj. The latter has been declared missing since the first week of August. Also, the journalist writes that Rama's statement was about Martinaj, but he will reveal why in the following days. 

"Patronage", he knows not only the car, but also the license plate... Because he knows in which car that gambling "director" was driving!!!! He even knew the license plate of the car...!!!! Zamet you have it, check the signal once, lest you have been sent a tip, where that team has taken him, which uses the uniform of the special forces... After all, you have an obligation, legal and moral, to tell us what fate he had, " the director" of the games of chance... When I say "you", not "the regime... but "patronage"... ("Los Pepes" made in Albania) It was a matter of luck, did this work go, or didn't you open online betting now... (When and why this statement was made to Ervis Martinaj, we will tell later).

However, he does not mention names when he talks about the members of this organization, nor who finances them. Meanwhile, in the country, there are "boiling" versions about the disappearance of one of the most popular figures in the business and not only. Is there really a "Los Pepes" organized to eliminate Martinaj? Who eliminated all his most loyal soldiers one by one, even his only 23-year-old nephew? Why is politics involved and what did Rama know about it? So far no one is talking. Only the group members (if it exists) and Martinaj know the truth. If he is still alive…/ File
