Ecuador Recaptures Notorious Drug Lord 'Fito' After Prison Escape
Ecuador's most wanted drug lord, Adolfo Macías Villamar aka 'Fito', was recaptured after being found in an underground bunker beneath a luxury home in Manta. He is the leader of the Los Choneros gang and suspected of ordering the assassination of a presidential candidate. Fito, who had escaped prison twice before, was transferred to a maximum-security prison in Guayaquil, and his arrest is seen as a success for Ecuador's efforts to combat organized crime.
