Venezuela said Monday it will extradite Colombian drug lord “Valenciano” to the United States if a formal request is made by that country.

Valenciano, whose real name is Maximiliano Bonilla, will be “deported to the United States when that country so solicits,” said Venezuela’s Interior Minister Tarek El Aissami.

The Colombian drug lord who headed the Medellin criminal gang, “Oficina de Envigado,” was arrested in Venezuela Monday in coordination with Interpol and is being held in the city of Maracay, some 80 miles from the capital, Caracas.

Valenciano is required for extradition by the United States, whose government issued a warrant for his arrest and a reward of up to $5 million for information leading to his capture and/or conviction.
