M24H Honra

The Honra 44 cartel, which began in the marijuana trade, quickly shifted its activities to the cocaine trade due to the much higher profit margins. Human and arms trafficking, corruption, and other criminal activities are also among Honra 44's holdings.

It is considered the fastest-expanding criminal syndicate we have ever encountered. This rapid expansion was only possible due to its infiltration of various government agencies, law enforcement, and criminal justice authorities.

The cartel possesses an excellent international network. This includes, among other things, the supply of the highest-quality raw materials from Colombia, state-of-the-art drug labs in Europe, and international supply routes to numerous major cities in the Far East. The cartel is known for its extremely ruthless methods and does not shy away from extortion, kidnapping, and contract fashion. The number 44 refers to the murders of DEA agents that Honra claims responsibility for in the year of its founding.

Little is known about the leader of the "El Mojito" cartel. He is considered ruthless and brutal. Nevertheless, his buchons, sicarios, and narcos are fiercely loyal to him. It is believed that "El Mojito" is based at a heavily guarded former military base and directs his operations from there. The task force is accused of numerous legal violations while carrying out its missions.

However, no DEA agent has ever been convicted. Due to the aggressive expansion of the Honra 44 cartel, it was decided to deploy Task Force 6 to Mahlwinkel. This unit is considered the most successful in the Task Force to date and has dismantled the largest cartels in Bolivia, Thailand, and Bulgaria in recent months.

Leader of the Honra 44 cartel - Roberto "El Mojito" da Silva

Roberto "El Mojito" da Silva was born in a suburb of El Paso, the third of seven children. He voluntarily left school and deliberately became an outlaw.

El Mojito spent his youth on the streets and in the bars of the local red-light district, where he became acquainted with local underworld figures who would prove important for his future career. Besides dealing marijuana, El Mojito earned his living through all kinds of theft, participated in robberies, and later kidnappings, demanding ransom for their release. He often murdered his captives, even after receiving the ransom, to demonstrate his power. El Mojito entered the drug trade in a big way when cocaine replaced marijuana. With his friend Jose Rodriguez, he began smuggling the drug, initially across the border into San Cristobal. His possession and use of firearms quickly earned him the respect of other gangs, who at that time were mostly armed only with knives and machetes. In the following years, El Mojito built a vast drug empire and founded the Honra 44 cartel.

The number 44 represents the murders of DEA agents that Honra claimed responsibility for in its founding year. He built his own laboratories and established an excellent network with other drug cartels, which he gradually acquired. In doing so, El Mojito ruthlessly eliminated both enemies and allies to further expand his power. After narrowly escaping capture by Task Force 3, losing a brother and his lover in the process, El Mojito went into hiding and disappeared from public view.

Since then, he has been considered extremely vigilant and only shows himself to his closest confidants. It is suspected that El Mojito is located in a heavily guarded former military base and directs his activities from there.
