Nicaraguan police hand over MS-13 boss to Interpol in Managua

Nicaraguan police handed over Saul Antonio Turcios Angel, a Salvadoran citizen who is regarded as boss of the criminal gang MS-13, or Mara Salvatrucha, to Interpol under tight security measures at Sandino International Airport in Managua, capital of Nicaragua, Sept. 4, 2009.

Turcios Angel, 29, who is described by Interpol as "highly dangerous," was arrested last week in the northwestern Nicaraguan town of Chichigalpa. MS-13 has a vicious reputation and is active in the United States in drug trafficking and other organized crime.
