WASHINGTON, (Reuters) – The U.S. Treasury yesterday said it tightened sanctions on the financial network of two top Colombian drug traffickers, blacklisting 20 individuals and 25 business enterprises.
The Office of Foreign Assets Control named the entities as specially designated narcotics traffickers because of their ties to Daniel Barrera Barrera, known as “El Loco Barrera,” and Pedro Oliviero Guerrero Castillo, known as “Cuchillo.”
The Treasury says the two, previously designated in March, are among the most wanted drug traffickers in Colombia today.
