Last spring Serrano ordered his men to go into the maximum-security wing of La Picota prison in Bogota because top Cali dons MIGUEL and GILBERTO RODRIGUEZ OREJUELA were thought to be plotting a jail break. The police found evidence they had been chatting away with their aides via cell phones, hard lines, fax and the Internet. Recently, DEA officials say, the cnp raided a group of private telecommunications switching centers that the cartel leaders had organized...
