César Emilio Peralta — known as “César the Abuser” — was arrested Monday in Cartagena, Colombia on a US warrant charging him with cocaine and heroin distribution, the attorney general’s office in Colombia announced.
Peralta’s name cropped up in June when 43-year-old Ortiz was shot in the back at a popular night club in Santo Domingo.
Thereafter news reports speculated that the hit was ordered by Peralta over a love triangle involving Dominican model Maria Yeribell Martinez Garcia who was rumored to be with Peralta but seeing Ortiz.
