He is no longer a Member of Parliament and is not serving in any political position.In addition to securing his political foothold through the use of gangs, Victor is a former senior Customs officer and a businessman who has control over parts of the Customs department, allowing him to build wealth and enabling him to engage in a range of criminal activities with impunity. According to reporting from January 2023, Victor threatened customs officers in their work.Victor continued to support Gran Grif gang until 2020 and has since supported rival gangs in that area (see S/2023/674, para 75). 7.
