MICROTRAFICO IN BOGOTÁ

"SAMBER" AND "L" ARE THE MOST DANGEROUS NEIGHBORHOODS

Being a Saturday in the afternoon, the day is dark and quite cold in the capital, where people are accustomed to be at home looking for a hot drink which has an indescribable aroma, but at this moment through a Drizzle begins to detect an aroma of several kinds which is complicated to encrypt because the environment is marijuana, bazuco, urine and feces. Additionally, this smell is accompanied by terms such as "papi that I can help", "monkey you are looking for" and more.

The "L", the new Cartridge of Bogota, is the area where it sells and consumes more drugs in the city. This three-block sector in the center of Bogota, also known as the Horno, grew from the mid-1980s, but was consolidated in 2002, after the construction of the Third Millennium park. "This place is a space of high urban deterioration where there are constructions prior to the 50s that have been adequate for the operation of tenants and 'hoteluchos' that serve as scenarios for the sale of drugs. It can be classified as the largest source of traffic for psychoactive substances in the District, "said Javier Molina, a former street inhabitant who now works with the Secretariat of Social Integration for the rehabilitation of indigents.

For this reason, the micro-trafficking of hallucinogens and narcotics that trigger the insecurity of a part of the capitals and cities of the country begins to be detected, in which the increase of crimes such as homicide and extortion is associated with the Fight for the dominance of the street drug sale in the hands of emerging armed bands that have the so-called "pot" as the new way of obtaining economic resources. With this we perceive that criminal gangs capture dozens of families pressed for their weak and precarious economic situation that throws them to participate in one of the chains of the commerce of marijuana, bazuco and cocaine.

Micro-traffic has created a mattress in areas of poverty, in some places more than in others, has become the serious problem of drugs. Complex and diverse, it is no longer just the struggle with high and middle class addicts, it is not treating young people in a doctor's office. No, it is a massive thing, but it also complicates the whole judicial system, penitentiary. If in a neighborhood there were ten people, there are now a hundred, two hundred, they are negotiating because that leaves them money, it is a way of life, it is the money they take to the wife, to the father, to the mother.

We see how all this situation of which we speak is lived in the "L" By day, it is an old quarter inhabited by indigents, prostitutes, jibaros, thieves, and murderers, but at night it seems the city of the "living dead", a Neighborhood between the Kra. 17 and Av. 1ra, a death camp; The place where many enter but few leave, and nobody knows the amount of illegal money
