On Wednesday, Spain extradited to the United States Hugo Carvajal, the former head of Venezuela's military counter-intelligence and an ally of Hugo Chávez. He has already been transferred to the United States and will appear in court in the morning.
US prosecutors accuse 63-year-old Carvajal of being a member of a drug cartel and, in particular, 17 years ago, as the head of military intelligence, he coordinated the shipment of five and a half tons of cocaine from Venezuela to Mexico.
