Medellin police said Sunday they have arrested a leader of drug trafficking organization “Los Rastrojos” who is wanted by Spain to face drug charges.
According to the authorities, the 47-year old Jhon Jairo Giraldo Cardona until recently was the organization’s main contact person in the European country.
Giraldo Cardona reportedly fled Spain after Spanish authorities arrested a number of his associates accused of distributing Colombian drugs in Europe.
The alleged narco’s extradition is expected shortly as Colombian authorities have already granted Spain’s extradition request.
