Mexico: Pablo Escobar’s death a suicide not police shooting claims son

The notorious Colombian drug trafficker Pablo Escobar’s son, Juan Escobar, bolstered conspiracy claims that his father committed suicide rather than being shot by a Colombian policeman as was widely reported. Speaking to Russia Today Spanish on Thursday in Mexico City. Juan Escobar, now known as Sebastian Marroquin, said the “real version” was kept quiet as it was “inconvenient for the Colombian establishment.”
Colombian National Police claimed they shot Escobar dead after using radio triangulation technology to pin point his location as depicted in the hit show 'Narcos.' However Juan dismissed the role of the Colombian authorities and other parties like the Americans or even the mafia calling his fathers death a “suicide.”
Talking about the war on drugs today, Juan said “an incredible hypocrisy surrounds this business” and pointed to “corruption in many organisations in the United States and elsewhere.” He said it was "necessary to review the rules that systematically allow the rise of drug traffickers."
Pablo Escobar was instrumental in pioneering trafficking routes from Latin America into the United States. At the peak of his criminal activities he was one of the richest people on earth.
