Rodrigo Tovar Pupo: Colombia arrests deported AUC ex-leader 'Jorge 40'

A former leader of one of Colombia's most notorious paramilitary groups has been arrested in Bogotá after being deported from the US.

Rodrigo Tovar Pupo had served 12 years of a 16-year prison sentence in the US for drug trafficking. Using the alias Jorge 40 he commanded the right-wing United Self-Defence Forces of Colombia (AUC). The AUC is said to have used battles with left-wing rebels to hide crimes such as drug trafficking and extortion.
