Monday afternoon, April 30, accused Andres Lopez Elorza arrived at JFK, who is expected to appear in the Federal Court of Brooklyn on Tuesday, sources said.

He was wearing a green jacket and folded his arms so as to hide the handcuffs when the US marshals took him at the airport.

Andreas Lopez Elorz, who was wanted in Colombia, has been hiding in the Spanish city of Santa Comba for about ten years. In the 2015 year, shortly after the local court decided to extradite him to the United States, Lopez disappeared. It was discovered a month later in Spain.

“This vet was a member of the drug team, he sewed puppies with containers of heroin and shipped the drug from Colombia to the United States,” the police said in a statement.

In 2005, Colombian police searched the clinic where Lopez worked and found that three kilos of heroin were implanted into three puppies. The dogs were going to be sent to the United States.

In December, the police in Peru 2014 arrested a visitor from Mexico, who was going to take out almost three kilograms of cocaine from the country in the stomachs of two of their St. Bernards. 22-year-old Mexican Giuseppe Tombolan underwent surgery for the dogs by placing a total of 11 sachets of drugs in their stomachs.

According to the veterinarians, both dogs had peritonitis as a result of the operation, which is why one of the dogs died. Drug dealers often hire people who carry drugs into their stomachs in the United States. Sometimes drugs penetrate through the containers into the stomach cavity and carriers die.
