{"name":"Mono Jojoy","description":"Victor Julio Suarez Rojas, alias Mono Jojoy, was a prominent member of the guerrilla group for over three decades. He was born on February 5, 1953 in Cabrera, Cundinamarca, and joined the FARC in 1975. Over the years, he rose through the ranks of the organization and became the commander of the Eastern Bloc, the largest and most geographically widespread unit of the FARC. He was also a member of the General Secretariat and the head of the organization's military wing. He was responsible for the activities of four mini-blocs of the FARC operating in the Eastern Plains of Colombia. He was involved in the 2003 bombing of El Nogal, an upscale social and sports club in Bogota, which left 36 dead and 100 others injured. The United States requested his extradition to face charges of drug trafficking and murder. Mono Jojoy was at the center of the FARC's drug trafficking activities and was accused of ordering the kidnapping of Ingrid Betancourt and three American contractors in 2002 and 2003, respectively. Colombian authorities believe he was also in charge of the group's hostage and kidnapping business. He died in a military operation in the municipality of La Macarena, Meta, in 2010. He suffered from diabetes, which led him to constantly seek insulin, a factor that helped authorities locate him.","image":"ipfs://QmbJqKqVhFq8H8gBkcc14YAAukq3c54b8m49zjBszXcoBp/55.jpg","externalUrl":"https://gblsts.com/alias/mono-jojoy","attributes":[{"trait_type":"Criminal Association","value":"Guerrilla"},{"trait_type":"Mentions","value":18},{"trait_type":"Mention Date","value":"2020-01-19"},{"trait_type":"Mention Date","value":"2020-01-30"},{"trait_type":"Mention Date","value":"2020-01-31"},{"trait_type":"Mention Date","value":"2020-05-09"},{"trait_type":"Mention Date","value":"2020-06-07"},{"trait_type":"Mention Date","value":"2020-07-22"},{"trait_type":"Mention Date","value":"2020-08-04"},{"trait_type":"Mention Date","value":"2020-09-14"},{"trait_type":"Mention Date","value":"2020-09-20"},{"trait_type":"Mention Date","value":"2020-10-06"},{"trait_type":"Mention Date","value":"2020-10-07"},{"trait_type":"Mention Date","value":"2020-10-08"},{"trait_type":"Mention Date","value":"2020-10-11"},{"trait_type":"Mention Date","value":"2020-10-25"},{"trait_type":"Mention Date","value":"2020-10-30"},{"trait_type":"Mention Date","value":"2020-11-21"},{"trait_type":"Mention Date","value":"2020-12-11"},{"trait_type":"Mention Date","value":"2020-12-23"}]}
