The Dominican authorities have extradited Colombian national Hector de Jesus Rodriguez Espinosa, a.k.a. "El Tio" to face charges of drug trafficking in Puerto Rico. DNCD agents arrested the Medellin native after they received a tip-off that he was hiding from the US authorities in the DR. The extradition request linked Rodriguez Espinosa to smuggling thousands of kilograms of drugs into the US.
A US Drug Enforcement Administration plane arrived at Las Americas International Airport on Saturday morning and took the prisoner to San Juan. At the time of his arrest, the 73-year old Colombian was living on Santo Domingo's Sarasota Avenue, driving a Hyundai Santa Fe SUV. He had been issued an ID as a legal foreign resident. The arresting officers were scrupulous about observing all the correct protocols for making a perfect arrest.
