For the second time in less than a month, another Jamaican who was wanted by the United States for alleged drug-trafficking waived his right to a formal extradition hearing and surrendered himself to the authorities to be extradited.

David Clarke, 55, of Parks Road, St Andrew is charged with conspiracy to distribute and possess with intent to distribute ganja.

On Friday, he signed the extradition consent form when he appeared in the Corporate Area Resident Magistrate's Court with his attorney Sandra Alcott.

Similarly Clarke's son, Mark Antonio, a 34-year-old musician, also waived his right to an extradition hearing when he appeared in court last Wednesday.

According to the arresting officer, in July 2008 Clarke and his son were indicted for drug offences by the Grand Jury in Illinois, USA.
