| A GUATEMMALAN man said by the US Government to have been one of the world's biggest cocaine dealers has been found guilty of conspiracy to import and sell the narcotic, prosecutors in New York say. Jorge Mario Paredes-Cordova, "one of the world's most significant drug kingpins, was found guilty of conspiracy to import and distribute cocaine,'' the US Attorney's office in Manhattan said. Paredes, said to weigh 150kg and be nicknamed "Gordo'' (Fat One), was extradited to the US after his May 2008 capture in Honduras, where he'd been living under an assumed identity. He faces a sentence of anything between 10 years and life in prison. The New York court found him guilty today of "conspiring to import tonne-quantities of cocaine into the United States through Central America and Mexico, and to distribute the cocaine in major US cities including New York,'' the prosecutor's office said Cocaine king faces life in jail | World Breaking News | News.com.au
