Documents indicate that since 2022, a series of investigations have been conducted against the president, partly based on confidential informant testimony. Possible scenarios under review include the use of his “total peace” policy to benefit drug traffickers, as well as the financing of his election campaign with cartel funds.

Additionally, schemes involving the smuggling of cocaine and fentanyl through Colombian ports with the involvement of law enforcement officials are being examined. Priority target status is assigned to individuals who, according to the US DEA, have significant influence over drug trafficking.
