Did it happen in real life?
Kind of, says Pablos' son:
27. After my father died, my mom was summoned to a meeting with the Cali cartel in the city, there were more than 40 big Mafia Bosses of the Colombia of the moment. The person who saved her was Miguel Rodriguez, not Gilberto. On that occasion they stripped us of out inherited property and shared the money as part of the spoils of war.

But since the "capitulation" of his mother to Calí must have been a very shameful act, I regard this statement as true.
