Uribe authorizes extradition “Macaco” to the United States

The United States had asked for the extradition of “Macaco”, because he is held responsible for the production and distribution of cocaine during the time as boss of the Central Bolivar Bloc, a paramilitary group of nearly 2000 men and women.Uribe said his government had warned about extradition and is now sticking to its plan. “Those who comply to the obligations of the ‘Justice and Peace’ law, don’t run the risk of being extradited”.Demobilized paramilitary members and leaders can avoid extradition to the United States if they cooperate with Justice and come clean with the crimes they committed.
