Heineken kidnapper also arrested for drug trafficking

Once upon a time, the good people of the far and cold Kingdom of the Netherlands were glued to their TV screens and ran for the morning papers to get the latest on the spectacular kidnapping of Freddie Heineken, the beer tycoon. The kidnappers were caught, some of the ransom money found, and Heineken and his driver unharmed.
Most of the kidnappers continued their criminal careers once released. Money was invested in the Amsterdam Red Light District, one kidnapper was shot and, it turns out, his half brother Martin Erkamps, also one of the kidnappers, lives and works in Panama! Writes La Prensa:
Urrego threatened?

Very strange. A major drug lord is in jail, declares he did business with the CIA and the DEA, and now he is receiving threats!
He says that persons connected to the government are making him offers he can't refuse to sell his island in the Pacific for six million dollars.
He also says he didn't really know Rayo Montana. That reminds us. His colleague on nearby Contadora. Carlos Arango Duque, owner of Hotel Contadora and subject of a DEA investigation until his plane blew up. He didn't know him either?
And, we wonder, who owns the Contadora hotel nowadays? Any tips?
