DRUG FIGURE'S EXTRADITION OK'D

LA PAZ, Bolivia (Reuters) -- Bolivia's Supreme Court said yesterday it had 
approved the extradition of alleged Colombian drug trafficker Eduardo 
Grajales Posso to the United States.

Grajales, 37, was arrested last week at the Viru Viru airport in the 
eastern city of Santa Cruz as he returned from a trip to Sao Paulo, Brazil.

Suspected of having ties to Colombia's Cali cartel, he will be extradited 
to Miami.
