Paraguayan authorities detained four airport insiders on 9 October in connection with a US‑registered drug jet that landed near Asunción in May, charging them with coordinating logistics, unloading and an attempted cargo release.
The raids, carried out by SENAD agents and prosecutors, targeted homes in Luque and a private company operating inside Silvio Pettirossi International Airport, and led to the detention of an air traffic controller from DINAC, a paperwork agent handling airport procedures, an operations supervisor at an air logistics firm, and separately the airport’s former deputy security manager.
