Christopher 'Dudus' CokeFormer Tivoli strongman Christopher 'Dudus' Coke is now in police custody in Jamaica.
The Gleaner understands that he was held in the vicinity of Ferry on the Mandela Highway, on the border of St. Andrew and St.Catherine.
The businessman, who has been on the run since the Jamaican government signed an extradition request May 18, was accosted by the police.
The Gleaner understands that he was in the company of the Reverend Al Miller. Miller said he was carrying Coke in to the US Embassy in Liguanea when he was stopped by the police on the Mandela Highway.
The pastor has been instrumental in the surrender of Coke's sister Sandy and brother Leighton.
The one-month manhunt for Coke has stretched from inner city communities in West Kingston to upscale neighbourhoods in St. Andrew. Houses of past and present politicians have also been searched, as the quest to find Coke fanned out to rural communities in Manchester, St. Mary and St. Ann.
The Labour Day military assault on Coke's heavily barricaded Tivoli Gardens stronghold led to bloody clashes which claimed the life of one soldier and 73 civilians.
In their bid to find Coke the police also placed a $5 million bounty on his head.
Coke is wanted in the US on drug and gunrunning charges.
