The incredible story of Asia’s el Chapo

Today we discuss the arrest of the man they call Asia’s el Chapo.

It’s estimated, Tse Chi Lop oversees a drug empire worth $90 billion a year. Considering Mexico and South American drug lords trade in amounts in the vicinity of $2-5 billion, Tse’s arrest, at the request of Australian authorities, is a massive coup for the federal police.

We're joined by Nine's feature reporter Chris Uhlmann and Sean Williams, host of The Underworld podcast.

In today's headlines:

  • "Urgent tracing" after two more Covid-19 cases found in New Zealand

  • Alleged paedophile Malka Leifer to front court after extradition from Israel

  • Aussies to start repaying $4.5b in Centrelink debts from next week
