Jamaica drug kingpin 'Dudus' Coke jailed for 23 years
Notorious Jamaican drug lord Christopher "Dudus" Coke has been sentenced to 23 years in a US prison, the maximum sentenced he faced.
Coke, 43, pleaded guilty to drug and gun-trafficking charges in August 2011.
A five-week operation to capture him in 2010 saw clashes in Jamaica's capital, Kingston, in which scores died.
