The public prosecutor in Lima announced that Zoran Jaksic, one of the leaders of the "America" group, was sentenced to 25 years in prison for drug trafficking and for being a member of a smuggling organization, otherwise known as "Lastavice", which supplied cocaine hydrochloride to Europe and North America.

During the debate, Prosecutor for Organized Crime, Arturo Mosquera Cornejo, said that Jaksic had purchased large quantities of cocaine hydrochloride and that he was the chief financier of an international network dedicated to illegal drug trafficking called Golondrinas (Gutaci).

Jota was considered the leader of illegal drug trafficking at the international level, as his organization delivered large quantities of cocaine to transnational organizations.

Among other members of the group, Heseni Mozo Kviana, Fredi Emerson Tipe Meza and Miguel Anhel Villanueva Flores, were found guilty and sentenced to 15 years in prison for drug trafficking.
