Peru Approves Extradition of ‘Negro Marín’ From Spain, Plus Six Other Suspects

The cabinet decision advances Peru’s cross‑border push against violent crime networks through formal extradition channels.

Overview

  • Miguel Ángel ‘Negro’ Marín’s extradition was approved on Feb. 7 by the Council of Ministers at the Justice Ministry’s request to face charges tied to an alleged criminal organization.
  • Marín was arrested in Madrid in November 2025 on an international red notice citing suspected contract killing, extortion and serious injuries.
  • He is accused of belonging to the group known as Los Sanguinarios de la Construcción and has been linked by authorities to violent rivalries in Lima Norte involving the figure known as ‘El Monstruo.’
  • The handover now depends on legal proceedings in Spain, while Peru’s penitentiary board reviews high‑security placement options such as the Callao Naval Base, Ancón 1’s special pavilion or Challapalca.
  • The same action cleared extradition moves for six others, including Mailer Rebaza Morales and Washington Estrada Almirón from Spain, Juan Nelson Quispe Ccalla from Italy, Víctor Raúl Orchess Espinoza from Argentina, Vicente Monlleo Vicent located in Italy, and a passive extradition of Ángel Espinoza Achata requested by Argentina.
