Narco submarine intercepted off the coast of Guatemala

Translated by Otis B Fly-Wheel for Borderland Beat from a Noreste article

Subject Matter: Narco submarine with 1 ton of cocaine intercepted
Recommendation: No prior subject matter knowledge required


A total of 967 kilos of cocaine, which was being transported on a mini-submarine in packets of football cards, was decommissioned by authorities in Guatemala, after the submarine was intercepted while sailing through the Pacific Ocean waters.

According to Yecenia Enriquez, spokeswoman for the Attorney General of Guatemala, during the operation they arrested and detained three men of Colombian origin. The submersible had departed from Colombia and was intercepted by elements of the armed services while carrying out a routine patrol in the Pacific Ocean area. The submersible was taken to a naval base where the drugs were offloaded and decommissioned.


"The submarine was manned by three Colombians, Edquener Vallejo Hurtado, Walter Obando Castro and Samuel Ballesine Quinonez", detailed Enriquez, who said that the decommissioned drugs would have a value of approximately 13.5 million dollars on the black market of the United States.

(Otis: I doubt this submarine is a true submersible, It looks like a surface vessel that is low profile and so has a very low radar cross section. It has its own radar on the roof of the cabin and doesn't appear to have a snorkel for a diesel engine to work under the surface. It could have a dual power, electric/diesel motor but I doubt it based on previously captured designs.)

    4. @5:44PM Be assured that I have never stolen any of your comments. Although you have posted quite a few, you have never posted one that was worth publishing, not even on BDN or even Info Wars.

      Just for the record, I have never even been to BDN site, afraid I would get infected with something.

    4. How could you all be this stupid, that shit was owned by dozens of Colombian, probably several dozens to minimize risk.Even Dairo Usuga couldn't solely invest in an 8 ton load, and why he or any big wig in Clan del Golfo do such a thing.As far as Mayo being one of many middle men, but for arguments sake let's say he and his compadres moves 8 into the states, after bribes, expected loss's, his partners getting a cut and if the Golfo's want him to wash it, he might be looking at 800kg, and that's not being conservative.Nevertheless it's alot for making some calls.

  7. Otis, based on the picture that is a go-fast vessel (GFV). It looks to be sitting too high in the water to be a low profile vessel (LPV; though to be fair they are a sub-classification of the GFV so there is some crossover), but that may just be the photo. The LPVs tend sit further down when loaded, and the various coast guards don't generally offload them at sea because it's too much of a pain. It is definitely wide enough to support two engines, but not every vessel sports them.

    Definitely not a self-propelled semi-submersible (SPSS) though. That said, there have been SPSS models that included a radar on the roof. They also only need a snorkel if they are running diesel engines versus electric ones.

  9. Were gonna be dry af now damnit...somebody got sum somewhere so...itll never stop theres alot of independent dealers too that have their own ways of transport.A walls not stoping anything...

    ReplyDelete

    1. Actually, the walls stop the lower level traffickers, forcing them to use the POEs. Also stops a decent number of human traffickers as the larger tunnels get noticed much faster.

      The walls may not stop everything, but they do curb certain behavior and force a change to another area that allows us to focus more rather than having to track 20 different methods of transport.

      That said, more of this stuff comes in by sea than people in the States care to admit.

  10. Drogas Decomisadas become Confiscated Drugs when you translate.
    They become decommissioned after the drug addicts are done with the stash, the guatermalan government just took control until the ransom is paid.

  20. No wonder everyone is leaving all of the Central American nations ! The only jobs they seem to have are involved in the international drug trade !!!! Why are all of these nations who have been around for 500 years so incompetent in providing education, decent living conditions and jobs for their own people?

    1. They haven't been around for 500 years. Speaking of education, have you read any good books lately? Why do you ask that question here? Try a history book, educate yourself please instead of poking fun at others misfortunes.

    2. 12:50 I am sure you have heard of the Banana Republics, invented by US United Fruit co. and kept under the foot of the US later by the CIA and the School of the Americas until
      SOA WATCH forced the US to subcontract to private mercenary paramilitary corporations.
      --You see the backwardness of LatinAmerica?
      That is what more than 200 years of exploitation under guise of friendship leaves behind...and now that there is not much more left to give, the demands for more are starting again.
