Colombia has extradited Diego Montoya, alleged to be one of the country's most powerful drug lords, to the US to face trial for murder and drug trafficking.
The charges relate to Mr Montoya's time as leader of the Norte del Valle cartel which, at its peak, reportedly exported 70% of cocaine sold in the US and EU.
Known as Don Diego, he ran a private army accused of 1,500 murders.
