U.S. Extradites Most Wanted Alleged Tren de Aragua Leader to Chile

• The U.S. has extradited Rafael Enrique Gámez Salas, 40, an alleged leader of "Los Piratas," the primary Chilean cell of the Venezuelan transnational criminal organization Tren de Aragua (TdA), to Chile. Gámez Salas is accused of directing multiple extortions and kidnappings, one of which resulted in the highly publicized murder of a former Venezuelan military officer whose body was found dismembered and buried in concrete. This extradition demonstrates strong cooperation between the U.S. and Chile in combating transnational crime.
