Carlos Amilcar Marroquin Chica

Carlos Amilcar Marroquin Chica (Marroquin), along with Osiris Luna Meza (Luna), is alleged to have led, facilitated, and organized several secret meetings with incarcerated gang leaders from MS-13 and Barrio 18, in which known gang members were allowed to enter the prison facilities and meet with senior gang leadership. It is believed that Luna and Marroquin represented President Bukele’s administration’s efforts to negotiate a secret truce with gang leadership involving financial payments to reduce gang violence and homicides in 2020. Additionally, as a result of these negotiations, incarcerated gang leadership were allowed privileges such as the provision of mobile phones and prostitutes, and the Nuevas Ideas political party received political support from gang leaders in the 2021 elections.   [1]
