Sebastian Enrique Marset Cabrera, a Uruguayan national and alleged cocaine boss wanted by the U.S. with a $2 million bounty, was captured in Santa Cruz, Bolivia, during a raid by Bolivian anti-narcotics police on Friday. The arrest marks a renewed cooperation between Bolivia and the U.S. after decades of strained relations. Bolivian President Rodrigo Paz, a Trump ally who recently met with the former U.S. president, stated the arrest is the first step in freeing Bolivia from crime and drug trafficking. Marset Cabrera was immediately transferred to the custody of the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration. The capture occurred after Paz took office in November, ending two decades of socialist rule in Bolivia.
