Spanish Drug Kingpin’s Right-Hand Man Sought in Morocco

The Audiencia de Cádiz is looking for this criminal who escaped from prison while serving a five-year sentence for a drug trafficking case involving several personalities from Ceuta. The fugitive, known to be close to the "Messi of hashish", who is also said to be taking refuge in Morocco, is also wanted for several drug trafficking cases that the justice system is handling, reports El Faro de Ceuta.

For the moment, Jesús Heredia, alias el Pantoja, remains untraceable. According to the investigators, he could be in Morocco where he has contacts, or in the south of the Iberian Peninsula where he also has supporters and the logistics to hide or disappear from the radar. El Pantoja is considered one of the most important barons of the hashish traffic in the Campo de Gibraltar region. He transported the drugs from Morocco to Cadiz.

The drug trafficker had been sentenced to six months in prison for the crime of belonging to a criminal organization and to four years, five months and fifteen days in prison, as well as the payment of 1,759,086 euros for a crime against public health. Today, like his boss, the Messi of hashish, he is a fugitive actively sought by the Spanish judicial authorities.
