Mexico drug plane used for US 'rendition' flights: report

3 days ago

MEXICO CITY (AFP) — A private jet that crash-landed almost one year ago in eastern Mexico carrying 3.3 tons of cocaine had previously been used for CIA "rendition" flights, a newspaper report said here Thursday, citing documents from the United States and the European Parliament.

The plane was carrying Colombian drugs for the fugitive leader of Mexico's Sinaloa cartel, Joaquin "Chapo" Guzman, when it crash-landed in the Yucatan peninsula on September 24, El Universal reported.

The daily said it had obtained documents from the United States and the European Parliament which "show that that plane flew several times to Guantanamo, Cuba, presumably to transfer terrorism suspects."

[OT, and apropos of nothing in particular, but does anyone remember that a plane owned by Africargo Airlines was leased out to Victor Bout? I'm sure the feds would tell us if they knew anything . .. (JMOO) ]
