The Bus Driver: Britain's Cocaine King

Great Britain has the second highest cocaine consumption on the planet. This epidemic can be traced back to one man: Jesus Ruiz Henao. The Bus Driver: Britain's Cocaine King (2x60) is the story of how Jesus Ruiz Henao brought cocaine to Britain. Fleeing the lawless world of 1980s Colombia for London, for over ten years he hid in plain sight, working as a bus driver while building a billion pound cocaine empire, inspired by his idol Pablo Escobar. Operating from stash houses and hiding behind coded communications, he stayed one step ahead of British police. It took a five-year, multi-agency investigation - the largest surveillance operation of its kind - by the National Crime Squad (NCS) and the Metropolitan Police to finally bring him down. With exclusive access to Jesus Ruiz Henao inside Colombia's notorious La Picota prison, he reveals how he masterminded drug shipments and evaded capture before finally being brought to justice. Featuring testimonies from his inner circle and the officers who pursued him, plus exclusive never-before-seen surveillance footage, this is the untold story of the man who brought cocaine to Britain.more
