Mario Segovia
Mario Segovia, known as 'El Rey de la Efedrina', is a 49-year-old convicted drug trafficker who has been incarcerated since 2008. He was sentenced to 17 years in prison for his role in smuggling ephedrine, a precursor chemical for methamphetamine production. From his prison cell, he allegedly orchestrated a complex plan to import firearms and explosives into Argentina, aiming to supply local criminal gangs in Rosario with advanced weaponry, which could elevate their operational capabilities to rival those of notorious international drug cartels.
