Bolivian court clears extradition of air force colonel to US on drug, weapons charges

A Bolivian judicial ruling accelerates the extradition of an active reserve air force colonel from Sucre to the United States, where he faces drug trafficking and machine gun possession charges. The decision marks a notable step in bilateral judicial cooperation, though the colonel's identity and the specifics of the evidence remain undisclosed. This could signal increased US-Bolivia law enforcement coordination amid regional drug trafficking concerns.
