Brazilian Bad Guy Marset directly threatens rivals and law enforcement: 'We are ready for war'
2025-11-05

A video circulating online shows Sebastián Marset, one of the world's most wanted drug traffickers, flanked by top leaders of Brazil's Primeiro Comando da Capital (PCC) from São Paulo, as they issue threats of war along Brazil's border.

Filmed over the weekend in Santa Cruz de la Sierra, Bolivia, the footage captures Marset armed and surrounded by heavily armed men displaying PCC symbols and references to the group's operations in Paraguay.

Present at the gathering were Patric Velinton Salomão (alias Forjado), Pedro Luiz da Silva Soares (alias Chacal), and Sérgio Luiz de Freitas Filho (alias Mijão)—all identified as key figures in the PCC's street-level command.

In the video, Marset directly threatens rivals and law enforcement: “We are ready for war.” He taunts efforts to track him, stating, “You keep saying where we are… Today I may be here, tomorrow in Paraguay, another day in Bolivia, another in Colombia. Wherever it is, we are prepared to wage war with whoever it is, with the Colla, with the police. I don’t care about anyone.”

Marset stands accused of shipping over 16 tons of pure cocaine from Bolivia to Europe, orchestrating a multimillion-dollar money-laundering network through shell companies, corrupting officials in three countries, and funding murders linked to drug turf wars. He closes with a stark warning: “Better to be friends than enemies. Whoever chooses war with us will not fare well.”
