50 Indicted in Alleged Cocaine Operation
March 22, 2006 - kool103.cc

The Justice Department said that FARC -- the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia -- is responsible for supplying over half of the world's cocaine.

United Press International

Fifty leaders of a Colombian rebel group have been indicted for allegedly exporting $25 billion worth of cocaine to the United States and other countries.

The U.S. Justice Department announcement of the indictments in Washington, D.C., labeled the suspects as "narcoterrorists," CNN reported Wednesday.

Three of those charged were already in custody in Colombia, U.S. Attorney General Alberto Gonzales said, and the United States will seek their extradition to face drug trafficking charges.

The three suspects in custody -- Jorge Enrique Rodriguez Mendieta, Erminso Cuevas Cabrera and Juan Jose Martinez Vega -- were arrested more than a year ago, CNN said.

Justice Department officials said Wednesday that FARC -- the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia -- is responsible for supplying more than half of the world's illicit cocaine, and more than 60 percent of the cocaine smuggled into the United States.

U.S. State Department officials announced rewards totaling more than $75 million for information leading to the capture of dozens of FARC leaders, including 24 of the 47 remaining fugitives named in the indictment.
