EU Targets Fugitive Drug Kingpin

EU Targets Fugitive Drug Kingpin

Published 3 days, 22 hours ago
Description

Dutch drug lord Jos Leijdekkers, aka “Bolle Jos,” is wanted for 81 years in prison on charges including trafficking, hits, and money laundering—and he’s hiding in Sierra Leone, allegedly linked romantically to the president’s daughter. With extradition stalled, the Netherlands is turning to the EU, threatening to cut 325 million euros in development aid to pressure Sierra Leone into handing him over. Leijdekkers is now a top priority at the EU summit in Brussels, as Europe moves to crack down on global drug trafficking.
