A NOTORIOUS gangster dubbed the UK’s Pablo Escobar has been charged just months after he was released from prison.
Curtis Warren, 59, walked free in November last year after serving 12 years for his role in a plot to flood Jersey with cannabis.

The gangster was arrested just months later at the home of a female warden he had an affair with in jail.
Warren has now been charged with repeatedly breaching his Serious Crime Prevention Order.
He is due to appear at Liverpool Magistrates’ Court on November 17.
The National Crime Agency said the 11 charges were authorised by the Crown Prosecution Service.
They include “alleged breaches relating to communications devices, travel, vehicles, business arrangements and finances”.
All the alleged offences took place between November 2022 and July 2023.
Warren rose from the back streets of inner city Liverpool to become an Interpol target who was famously included in the Sunday Times Rich List.
The former drugs king pin – dubbed the “UK’s Pablo Escobar” – was jailed for 13 years in 2009 after he tried to flood Jersey with cannabis.
He was forced to serve an extra ten years in prison when he refused to hand over the £198million fortune police believed he had made from international crime.
