One of Colombias most notorious commanders of drug trafficking neo-paramilitary group AGC was extradited to the United States on Thursday, according to Argentine police.
In an operation involving Interpol, US marshals and Argentine police, Henry Jesus Lopez, known as Mi Sangre was transported by helicopter from the prison in the capital to a nearby airport where he was put on a plane to the US.

According to police, he had held passports from seven countries in order to evade arrest and entered Argentina disguised as a Venezuelan businessman.
Mi Sangre is a former member of the far-right AUC paramilitary group and a former top commander in the AGC, a.k.a. Los Urabenos, and is also wanted in Colombia to face drug trafficking, terrorism and conspiracy charges.
