Colombia's Most Wanted Drug Lord Captured
Joint Operation by the Army, Air Force and UK & US Police BBC News 24 Oct 2021 https://carolinafootsteps.com/wp-con...onio-usuga.jpg Colombia's most wanted drug trafficker and the leader of the country's largest criminal gang has been captured. Dairo Antonio Úsuga, better known as Otoniel, was seized after a joint operation by the army, air force and police on Saturday. The government had offered a $800,000 (£582,000) reward for information about his whereabouts, while the US placed a $5m bounty on his head. President Iván Duque hailed Otoniel's capture in a televised video message. "This is the biggest blow against drug trafficking in our country this century," he said. "This blow is only comparable to the fall of Pablo Escobar in the 1990s." |
