An ‘invisible’ cocaine smuggler from the UK has been caught in Colombia after years on the run.

Colombia has arrested a suspected British drug trafficker they described as “invisible” because of his low-profile lifestyle that allowed him to remain anonymous as he acted as the co-ordinator of a cartel trafficking cocaine from the South American country to the UK.

Christopher Neal was arrested on Thursday in the northwestern city of Medellin as a result of an operation by local law enforcement agencies and Interpol. They accused Neil of working for Columbia Gulf Clan poster.

In the 1980s and 1990s, Colombian authorities coined the term “invisible drug traffickers” to describe the low-key, low-profile people who operate in contrast to the eccentricities of the country’s drug lords.

Colombia’s National Police said Neil had been living in Colombia since December 2018. He is wanted in the United Kingdom, where he faces charges of human trafficking and money laundering, the agency said.

Police said they followed a vehicle through the Medellin area before arresting Neil. They said that a multi-million dollar transaction between Great Britain and Colombia played a key role in the arrest of the suspect.

It was not immediately clear Friday if Neil had an attorney available to comment on his behalf.
