Fifteen members of a drug trafficking organization that operated in Córdoba were found guilty. They sold narcotics at fixed locations in the neighborhoods of Quintas de San Jorge, San Jorge, and Yofre Norte. The sentences range from 4 to 6 and a half years in prison.
Gabriel Alejandro Peralta received the highest sentence, with 6 years and 6 months in prison. He was followed by Carlos Martín, Claudio Daniel, and Diego Rubén Serrano, all with sentences exceeding 6 years. The verdict was issued by the 8th Criminal Chamber of Córdoba.
La banda criminal había montado una red de expendio con siete puntos de venta activos día y noche.
They operated around the clock
The criminal gang had set up a distribution network with seven sales points active day and night. The investigation, led by the Public Prosecutor's Office, made it possible to completely dismantle the structure. The Anti-Narcotics Police Force carried out the raids and arrests.
During the operations, 2,872 doses of cocaine, 2,569 of marijuana, and 933 psychotropic pills were seized. They also confiscated six vehicles, a truck, and $3,352,670 in cash. The convicted individuals maintained a professional and dangerous distribution circuit.

Crime must not go unpunished
With these sentences, the judiciary reinforces a necessary message: crime can't go unpunished. In neighborhoods where drug trafficking advances, law-abiding residents are the first to pay the consequences. Security is not negotiable; it is guaranteed.
The judicial system, when it works, sets clear boundaries. Unlike years of complicity and turning a blind eye, today those who choose to live outside the law pay. No criminal romanticism or sociological excuses: these individuals sold drugs, and the judiciary acted.
