Walid Makled drug trafficker Venezuela

Colombian police officers escort Venezuelan drug trafficker Walid Makled to an aircraft to be extradited to Venezuela on May 9, 2011 at the anti-narcotics air base in Bogota. Makled, arrested in August 2010 in Colombia, was also requested in extradition by the United States, where he is accused of drug trafficking, but the Colombian government argued that Caracas had made the request first and that the crimes for which he is wanted in his country, including murder, are more serious.
