Gringos and ticos join forces to form robbery gang in Liberia.

Bizarre…. Starting to see alot of gringos turning up in the local papers for various crimes.

Maybe this is an effect of the decline of the sportsbook industry, or the selective hiring practices?

The Bandidos have chapters in Costa Rica, Panama and Nicaragua.

I do read Diario Extra every day and have never seen any of them or the club itself involved in any crime however.

I've always thought it was shameful the way that some governments persecute motorcycle clubs. Happy to see that Costa Rica judges individuals independently, not automatically assuming guilt by association.

Are they still active? Any known hangouts?

Their website seems really outdated. And I agree with unfair police profiling, biggest crooks are in the government, yet a little resistance to the system it's of no tolerance to the pigs.
