BOGOTÁ, Colombia (AP) — One of Colombia’s legendary drug lords and a key operator of the Medellin cartel has been deported back to the South American country, after serving 25 years of a 30-year prison sentence in the United States.
Shortly after landing on Monday in Bogota, Fabio Ochoa was a free man.
The former cartel boss was met by immigration officials in bullet proof vests on landing.
Colombian officers took Ochoa’s fingerprints and ran his name through a database.
Shortly after, the national immigration agency confirmed there were no outstanding cases against him.
