Release of Impact Report on Economic Sanctions Against Colombian Drug Cartels

On May 4, 2007, OFAC released the Impact Report on Economic Sanctions Against Colombian Drug Cartels, a report reviewing OFAC's efforts to expose and isolate significant Colombian narcotics traffickers and their associates, and disrupt and dismantle their business empires. The report provides detailed documentation on each of the 21 Colombian drug cartel principals and organizations that have been targeted by OFAC. The report also focuses on specific highlights of the narcotics trafficking sanctions program, including the historic September 2006 plea agreement between the United States Government and the leaders of Colombia's infamous Cali drug cartel, Miguel and Gilberto Rodriguez Orejuela.
