La Tri, short for La Triada, is a term used to describe a powerful criminal organization based in Ecuador. This group is known for its involvement in drug trafficking, extortion, and other illegal activities. La Tri has gained notoriety for its violent tactics and influence over various regions in the country. The organization is often associated with the ongoing conflict between rival gangs, which has led to increased violence in urban areas. Law enforcement agencies in Ecuador are actively working to dismantle La Tri and reduce its impact on society, but the group continues to pose significant challenges to public safety and security.
