One of Colombia’s most notorious drug traffickers shipped “outrageous quantities of cocaine” into the United States, a top US prosecutor has said, a day after Dairo Antonio Usuga was extradited to face charges in New York.
Usuga, better known as Otoniel, is “one of the most dangerous, most wanted drug kingpins in the world” who once had as many as 6,000 “henchmen” under his command, Breon Peace, the US attorney for the Eastern District of New York, told reporters on Thursday.
