A top leader of the Venezuelan prison gang Tren de Aragua has been added to the FBI’s Ten Most Wanted Fugitives list, marking the first time a member of the violent transnational organization has appeared on the bureau’s highest-priority fugitive roster, as reported by The New York Post.
Giovanni Vicente Mosquera Serrano, 37, is wanted for his alleged role in coordinating drug trafficking and terrorism operations tied to Tren de Aragua, which has established a presence in the United States and several other countries.
The FBI made the announcement Tuesday, offering a $3 million reward for information leading to Serrano’s capture.

“Tren de Aragua is allegedly responsible for sending gang members to the U.S. who engage in drug trafficking, human trafficking, weapons trafficking, and violent crime,” the FBI said in its statement.

The gang gained national attention last year when its members reportedly took over entire apartment complexes in Colorado, a self-declared sanctuary state.
The gang's growing presence and criminal activities across multiple states have intensified concern among law enforcement officials.
President Donald Trump has taken direct action against the gang, officially designating Tren de Aragua as a terrorist organization and making its dismantling a priority under his renewed immigration enforcement initiatives.
Trump invoked the 1798 Alien Enemies Act to classify the group as a foreign enemy force and began deporting Venezuelan nationals with suspected gang ties to a high-security prison in El Salvador.

In addition to Serrano’s placement on the Ten Most Wanted list, the U.S. Department of the Treasury announced new sanctions against him on Tuesday, freezing any assets he holds in the United States.
“[Tren de Aragua] remains focused on terrorizing our communities and facilitating the flow of illicit narcotics into our country, relying on key leaders like Mosquera Serrano to finance and oversee their violent operations,” said Scott Bessent, Secretary of the Treasury.
Serrano faces charges including conspiracy to provide material support to a foreign terrorist organization and conspiracy to distribute cocaine in Colombia with the intent to distribute in the United States.
Earlier this year, in April, the Justice Department filed its first terrorism-related charges against a known member of the gang, Jose Enrique Martinez Flores. Flores is believed to be part of the organization’s leadership structure.
Federal officials are urging the public to come forward with any information that could lead to Serrano’s arrest as the government increases its efforts to curb the gang’s growing influence within the U.S.
