Colombia’s security and intelligence agency DAS arrested Pedro Pablo Tobar Delgado, alias “Pedro El Grande,” who is believed to have handled the personal finances of FARC leader Victor Julio Rojas Suarez, alias “Mono Jojoy.”

DAS agents arrested Pedro El Grande on Wednesday afternoon in Bello, a municipality neighboring the Antioquian capital Medellin.

As well as managing Mono Jojoy’s finances, Pedro El Grande, along with family members, reportedly handled drug trafficking money in collaboration with alias “Rasguño” from the Norte del Valle cartel.

Pedro El Grande will be charged with asset laundering, illicit enrichment and intent to commit a crime.
