The United States has designated the Tren de Aragua, a criminal organization, as a terrorist group. Guerrero Flores, a member, faces charges in New York for racketeering and supporting terrorism.
Tren de Aragua has been labelled by the United States as a terrorist organisation.
Guerrero Flores was charged in a New York federal court with racketeering conspiracy and other crimes, including lending support to terrorists in crimes that stretched more than a decade, authorities announced in December.
US Attorney Jay Clayton said at the time that the gang was responsible for countless acts of violence, extortion and drug trafficking in North America, South America and Europe.
Trump nominated Clayton on Thursday to be director of national intelligence.
The US State Department had offered rewards of up to US$5 million for information leading to Guerrero Flores’ arrest
In a post on his social media site, Trump wrote: “Tren de Aragua terrorists no longer have safe haven in Venezuela or anywhere else and, under my leadership, we will find these vicious murderers and drug lords anytime, anyplace, and send them to the depths of hell where they belong.”
Trump has taken a series of extraordinary actions against the gang, including a series of strikes on small boats his administration has accused of smuggling drugs to America.
