"El Señor del Puerto", "Maradona", "El Castaña" and "Kiko el Fuerte"
With the arrest of J.G.M, "El Señor del Puerto", there are already several "historical" drug traffickers in the Strait area that are being detained in recent months by security forces.
The most recent detention is that of the one known as “Kiko the Strong”, who was recently arrested with 17 members of his gang in an important Civil Guard device, which had been done with the control of hashish entry by the Campo de Gibraltar, after the arrest and dismantling of the "Los Castaña" group.

Although he was arrested several times in different police operations against drug trafficking, over the years he has become the person with the largest network of contacts for the extraction of drug items from the port of Algeciras.
In fact, in the investigation referred to last year, J.G.M was seen in key meetings with the leaders of the "colla" of dockers of the Port of Algeciras, arrested for the extraction of these facilities from the 480 kg of cocaine intervened.
