Guillermo Galdos (part two) : Two Black Hawk helicopters appeared on top of us…spraying with bullets. I remember hearing the trees falling down. It looked like the end of the world

This week on The Line of Fire, Ramita continues her conversation with the award-winning Peruvian journalist and documentary maker Guillermo Galdos.    In Part two Guillermo tells Ramita about his meeting with one of the world’s most notorious drug lords “La Tuta”, who was too drunk and high to interview, and about getting on the wrong side of cartel boss El Chapo’s wife.    We’ll hear how a single moment coming under attack in Colombia changed Guillermo forever.   Ramita and Guillermo’s conversation is interrupted by a text message Guillermo receives with some shocking news. Listener discretion is advised.    Show Notes: If you want to learn more about Guillermo’s work, check out his page on the Channel 4 News website.  You can watch Guillermo’s film about the history of the Colombian conflict El Testigo on Netflix.  Follow Guillermo on Twitter: @GuillermoGaldos  Hosted on Acast.
