In this Spanish name, the first or paternal surname is Serrano and the second or maternal family name is Cadena.
Rosso José Serrano Cadena (August 30, 1942) is a former General of the Colombian National Police from 1994 to 2000 during Ernesto Samper's presidency and was one of the masterminds behind the dismantling of the Cali Cartel and Medellín Cartel. Serrano received numerous national and international decorations for his work against illicit drugs, drug-trafficking and the restructuring of the Colombian Police. He is currently working as head of the Colombian diplomatic mission to Austria.
Serrano was described with words like "hero" in international media outlets.[2][3][4] The American CongressmanBob Barr called him a "true hero in the War on Drugs".[5] Serrano was twice chosen as the World's Top Cop by the International Association of Police Chiefs.[3][2]
The Los Angeles Times wrote in 2000:
Serrano’s ability to anticipate change and respond has allowed him to survive four defense ministers and two presidents during his more than five years as police director. That’s impressive for a kid from the little town of Velez who admits that he joined the police at age 17 because he liked the uniform. “Serrano is more than a great policeman,” said Myles Frechette, former U.S. ambassador to Colombia.[6]
In TV Series El cartel is portrayed by the colombian actor Germán Quintero as the character of Javier Ibarra.
In the American crime thriller drama Narcos he is portrayed by the actor Gaston Velandia.
