The Colombian survivor of a US attack on a suspected narco submarine in the Caribbean was released without charge after being treated for his injuries, authorities told AFP on Tuesday.

On October 18, the 34-year-old was repatriated to Colombia in critical condition after the submarine he was traveling in was bombed.

President Donald Trump claimed, without providing proof, that the vessel was loaded with fentanyl and other drugs.

Two people onboard were killed and two others -- the Colombian and an Ecuadoran national -- were detained and handed over to their countries.

The Colombian survivor was admitted to a Bogota hospital suffering from brain trauma.

Interior Minister Armando Benedetti had stated that upon his recovery, he would be "prosecuted" by the justice system as a "criminal."
