‘FITO' ESCAPED FROM A PRISON IN JANUARY 2024 BUT WAS RECAPTURED
-
Notorious Ecuadorian drug traffick Adolfo Macias, alias “Fito’, pleaded not guilty to narcotics charges in a US court on Monday, a month after he was recaptured following a 2024 escape from a maximum security penitentiary.
The Ecuadorian government extradited “Fito” to the US on Sunday, the country’s prison authority said. The flight transporting Macias landed in New York state on Sunday night, according to the Flightradar tracking site.
The leader of the Los Choneros gang delivered his “not guilty” plea in a Brooklyn federal court through his lawyer and with the help of an interpreter, an AFP correspondent saw. He denied seven charges, including drug trafficking and arms trafficking, punishable by 20 years to life imprisonment.
