Thirty-two years ago today, on December 2, 1993 (October 19, 1993 lunar calendar), Escobar, the leading drug lord in Colombia, was killed. On December 2, 1993, Pablo Escobar, the leading drug lord in Colombia, who had been absconding from prison for 16 months, was shot dead by the police in the city of Medellín. Colombian police received intelligence on the afternoon of December 2 that Escobar was hiding in a house in the center of Medellín, and immediately rushed to the place to surround the building. Escobar resisted arrest, first opened fire on the police, and attempted to escape from the roof. The police returned fire, killing Escobar with two bullets in the head, and killing two accomplices at the same time. That afternoon, Colombian President Gaviria made a radio and television address to the country, announcing the news of Escobar's death. He said that this was a decisive event in Colombia's anti-drug fight, but the anti-drug fight did not end. He said that the Colombian government will continue to adhere to the anti-drug policy. Escobar was born in Medellín, Colombia's second largest city, on December 1, 1949. He started his drug trafficking career in the early 1970s and became the head of the world's largest Medellín drug cartel in the 1980s. He made a fortune from drug trafficking and his personal property was worth 30 to 5 billion dollars. Escobar led his subordinates to carry out assassinations, bombings, kidnappings and other terrorist activities, armed opposition to the government's anti-drug operation, and created a bloodbath that shocked the world. Faced with the government's powerful military and political offensive, Escobar surrendered to the government in June 1991. On July 22, 1992, Escobar escaped from prison. After escaping from prison, Escobar never used the phone to avoid exposing himself. However, at the end of last month, the General Prosecutor's Office stopped protecting his family, and his wife and son were sent back to Bogota, Santa Fe, after their asylum in Germany was not accepted. At this time, Escobar, who was in Medellín, was in a mess. He had a five-minute phone call with his wife and son at 1:00 pm on December 2, which resulted in the exposure of his residence. The ambushed search team rushed into the house, and Escobar was killed on the roof as he tried to escape. A search team was established to capture the drug lord Colombia, and 3,000 checkpoints and 2,000 observation posts were established. During this time, the search team killed 145 members of the Medellín Group military organization, confiscated 1,260 weapons, 74 cars, 7 tons of explosives and 263 communication equipment, and dealt a heavy blow to the gang. In order to capture Escobar, the search party searched all the real estate and residences of him and his family and friends, forcing him to change his hideout frequently. On these days, the 2,600-strong search team carried out as many as 360,000 searches and 300 full-scale operations.
