Jorge Luis Zambrano
Jorge Luis Zambrano, also known as 'Rasquiña', was a notorious Ecuadorian criminal leader and the head of the criminal organization known as Los Choneros, which was heavily involved in drug trafficking and organized crime in Ecuador. His leadership contributed to the rise of violence in the country, particularly in the context of disputes between rival gangs and alliances with powerful drug cartels like the Sinaloa Cartel. Zambrano's death led to a power vacuum in Los Choneros, resulting in increased internal conflict and violence, further exacerbating Ecuador's crisis with organized crime.
