One of Britain's most wanted criminals has been flown back to the UK to face prison after three years on the run.
The National Crime Agency (NCA) released footage of drugs trafficker Martin Evans looking relaxed as he was escorted from a plane at Heathrow.
The 52-year-old, who also ran a £900,000 ostrich farm scam, was captured by armed officers in South Africa in August after a tip from UK investigators.
Evans failed to return from day release at a Wiltshire prison in 2011.
He had been serving 21 years for conspiracy to supply cocaine.
The Swansea man - a former Young Businessperson of the Year - initially fled to Cyprus before making his way to South Africa.
Simon Flowers, NCA Wales branch commander, said: "Martin Evans has been a thorn in the side of law enforcement in Wales for many years so the time spent getting him back behind bars is more than worth it.
"The NCA and its partners will pursue fugitives wherever they are in the world. There are no safe havens for criminals - if you have committed a crime, expect a knock at the door."
Evans had been on the run from police once before.
In 2000 he fled to Spain while waiting to stand trial for fraud after swindling 115 investors of their savings in an ostrich farm scam in South Wales.
He went on to lead an international gang smuggling ecstasy and cocaine worth at least £3m into Britain.
Evans was caught and flown back to the UK after trying to enter the United States in 2001.
