IG asks Court to allow extradition of DMG boss

Colombia’s Inspector General asked the Supreme Court to allow the extradition to the U.S. of David Murcia, former director of financial company DMG and in jail for running a ponzi scheme.

According to the Inspector General’s Office, the U.S. complied to all requirements and the extradition request should be granted.

Murcia is wanted by U.S. justice to face charges of money laundering in favor of the Colombian drug trade.

The jailed DMG boss has expressed on several occasions he wants to be extradited to the U.S. as he claims he never had the chance for a fair trial in Colombia.

DMG was convicted for money laundering, but has not yet heard how long he will have to be in jail for.
