Broadcasters in Bolivia, Paraguay, Peru and Colombia are among the latest channels in Latin America to have acquired Turkish crime drama Ezel.

Unitel in Bolivia, TV Accion in Paraguay, Latina in Peru and Caracol in Colombia will all air the series, which is produced by Ay Yapim and sold by Sweden-based Eccho Rights.

Eccho worked in partnership with Miami’s Somos Distribution on the deals and claims the series has now been sold to every country in Latin America.


Other broadcasters in the region to have aired the show, which tells the story of a young man returning from military service only to find himself jailed after being set up by his friends and fiancée, include Telefe in Argentina and Mega in Chile.

Eccho last month appointed its first head of Latin America as its sales continue to grow in the region.

Barbora Susterova, who has spent the last eight years at Spanish production giant Imagina, has taken the newly created position to lead the company’s charge in the territory.

The sales of the Turkish drama in Latin America come after Turkey after was chosen as 2015’s Country of Honour at Mipcom, which takes place in October.
