After being investigated for years, Colombia’s most wanted drug trafficker and the leader of the country’s largest criminal gang has finally been nabbed.
It was gathered that Dairo Antonio Úsuga, better known as Otoniel, was seized after a joint operation by the army, air force and police on Saturday.
It was further learnt that the government had offered 800,000 dollar reward for information about his whereabouts, while the US placed a 5 million dollar bounty on his head.
Meanwhile, President Iván Duque has hailed Otoniel’s capture in a televised video message.
