Colombia’s largest drug trafficking organization, “Los Rastrojos,” has placed an ad on the internet in search of a new military chief.

According to the ad on job searching website “Zonajobs,” the group is looking for a “general manager of an informal army” whose task will be to “manage routes to Venezuela and maintain relations with Colombian and Venezuelan members of the military.”

Well-known collective of drug traffickers and rearmed paramilitaries 
requires chief of military operations to manage routes to Venezuela
and maintain relations with Colombian and Venezuelan military officials.

“Soap opera actors need not apply,” the group clarified after saying applicants must have “balls” and experience in petty crime or the armed forces.

According to the ad, payment will be on commission basis.

The Rastrojos lost their military commander on Sunday after “Diego Rastrojo” was arrested in Venezuela, some ten years after forming what has now become the country’s largest drug cartel. Rastrojo was commanding an army of some 800 men.
