Peru Court Bars 'Negro Marín' From Leaving the Country for 30 Months in Organized Crime Probe

Prosecutors are appealing for 36 months of preventive detention following a ruling that cited reasonable suspicion based on communications linking him to violent attacks.

Overview

  • Judge Roberth Rimachi Pilco of the Second Preparatory Investigation Court of Ventanilla ordered a 30‑month travel ban on Miguel Ángel Marín Morón, alleged figure in 'Los Sanguinarios de la Construcción'.
  • The Prosecutor’s Office appealed a March 6 decision that denied 36 months of pretrial detention and imposed release with restrictions, and it is seeking preventive detention for 36 months on appeal.
  • Prosecutor Edwin Velásquez argued flight risk, citing multiple migration records in Argentina, Spain and Mexico, a passport obtained at the Peruvian consulate in Argentina without entry records, and disputed domicile and employment documents.
  • The court referenced reasonable suspicion of Marín’s role in the criminal group based on communications tying him to attacks and to figures such as Erick Moreno Hernández ('El Monstruo') and alias 'Cachanga'.
  • The defense presented residency certification from Parla, Spain, family ties abroad and work claims, and challenged evidentiary handling including the missing cellphone at capture; Marín was extradited from Spain on February 27.
