ÉTATS UNIS 🇺🇸 : pour le Département du Trésor, la cocaïne colombienne reste une grande menace

L’Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) a évoqué dans un communiqué la menace que fait peser la cocaïne colombienne sur les États-Unis après avoir identifié des personnes et même des entités qui font circuler la drogue à l’échelle internationale, mettant en alerte les autorités nord-américaines.

Dans le mémorandum, l’OFAC a fait référence à la sanction qui a été prononcée ce jeudi contre Zulma María Musso Torres, également connue sous le nom de « La Patrona » ou « La Señora » que les autorités américaines décrivent comme l’un des dirigeants d’un réseau de trafic de drogue basé à Santa-Marta.

Selon les informations du département du Trésor, l’organisation de Zulma María Musso Torres contrôlait des corridors maritimes stratégiquement situés dans le nord du pays sud-américain (Magdalena, Atlántico et La Guajira) et facturait aux narcos chaque kilogramme de drogue en échange de protection et de sécurité pour les expéditions de cocaine.

L’OFAC a également identifié les complices de Zulma María Musso Torres. Ce sont ses deux enfants, Washington Antúnez Musso et Juan Carlos Reales Britto et son mari, Luis Antonio Bermúdez Mejía.

En ce qui concerne les sociétés qui seraient liées aux activités illicites de « La Patrona », il existe « Exclusive Import Export S.A.S. » et « Polígono Santa Marta S.A.S. », qui appartiennent à l’un de ses fils.

Cette annonce fait suite à celle du 15 septembre dernier, lorsque Joe Biden, a identifié pour l’exercice 2022, les pays considéré par les Etats Unis comme trafiquant de drogue ou comme principaux producteurs de drogues illicites dans le monde.

Sur la liste figurent : Afghanistan, Bahamas, Belize, Bolivie, Birmanie, Colombie, Costa Rica, République dominicaine, Équateur, El Salvador, Guatemala, Haïti, Honduras, Inde, Jamaïque, Laos, Mexique, Nicaragua, Pakistan, Panama, Pérou et le Vénézuela.

« La présence d’un pays sur la liste ci-dessus ne reflète pas les efforts antidrogue de son gouvernement ou le niveau de coopération avec les États-Unis (…) la raison pour laquelle les pays sont inclus dans la liste est la combinaison de facteurs géographiques, commerciaux et les facteurs économiques qui permettent le transit ou la production de drogues, même si un gouvernement a adopté des mesures robustes et diligentes de contrôle des stupéfiants et d’application de la loi », indique le document.

FRANCE 🇫🇷 (Bordeaux) : deuxième jour tendu au procès de Moufide Bouchibi, le narco-businessman

Le procès a viré au bras de fer procédural entre magistrats et avocats, provoquant neuf suspensions. Moufide Bouchibi jusque-là n’a pas été entendu.

Les avocats ont accusé le tribunal de vouloir juger le prévenu «à marche forcée», les magistrats dénonçant, eux, une obstruction.

Appel de l’acte de renvoi, contestation des écoutes téléphoniques, et du mandat d’arrêt lancé en 2012: les avocats sont encore revenus à la charge jeudi pour torpiller la procédure et tenter de faire annuler le procès, en vain. «Il n’a jamais été informé qu’il était poursuivi et qu’il était en fuite (…) ce procès est impossible, il faut arrêter le massacre», a plaidé Me Thomas Bidnic.

Nos « Dalloziens » distingués n’aiment pas que les avocats de la défense remettent en cause les procédures. Eux, toujours tellement respectueux des textes qu’ils savent, si nécessaire, s’en affranchir !

°°°°

En mémoire le magistrat Frederick Arseneault du tribunal Provincial de Barhurst au Nouveau Brunswick qui condamna à perpétuité Marc Fievet, l’agent infiltré de la Dnred de la Douane Française qui avait plaidé coupable à la demande de la Direction générale de la Douane Française, du ministre DSK et de son dircab François Auvigne. Perpétuité obtenue, alors que Fievet n’avait pas d’avocats, et retour en France où l’adaptation de la sentence à Bobigny, prononcée à huis clos, qui devait arranger la situation de Fievet se transforma alors en véritable catastrophe juridico-administrative puisque, non contente de transformer la sentence en 20 ans de taule sans prendre en compte son temps de détention déjà effectué, la substitut du procureur Djemni-Wagner qui obtint 20 ans, conseilla à Fievet de déposer un recours en grâce présidentiel, se lavant les mains à la Ponce-Pilate..

Jean Puons, le directeur de la DNRED, rendit visite à Fievet pour lui dire que l’on allait privilégier le recours en grâce et qu’il ne fallait surtout pas faire appel de la sentence prononcée pour ne pas retarder encore sa libération !

Le DG François Auvigne refusa alors au directeur de la DNRED Jean Puons l’intervention pour obtenir la grâce.

L’ancien directeur de la Direction nationale du renseignement et des enquêtes douanières (DNRED), Jean Henri Hoguet, affirme qu’il n’avait « jamais entendu la DNRED dire que ce dernier avait tenté de faire du trafic pour son propre compte ». Il confirme que plusieurs responsables des douanes sont allés rendre visite à Marc Fiévet en Espagne, puis en Angleterre et au Canada : « On lui a dit de plaider coupable et qu’ensuite on le ferait rapatrier en France pour arranger les affaires », assure le haut fonctionnaire. Cependant, Jean-Henri Hoguet assure qu’il s’est passé ensuite « quelque chose de tout à fait inhabituel » : le nouveau directeur général des douanes, qui ne connaissait pas l’affaire, devait intervenir auprès du ministre des Finances, qui devait lui-même avertir le ministère de la Justice pour tenter d’obtenir — via le parquet — sa remise en liberté. « Une peine symbolique, comme par exemple cinq ans avec sursis », précise l’ex patron de la DNRED. Une promesse faite à l’agent infiltré qui n’a jamais été tenue. La situation a scandalisé M. Hoguet : « Si je suis sorti de ma réserve, c’est que je trouve inadmissible ce qui s’est passé (…). C’est la première fois que je rencontre un tel comportement qui fait que la continuité de l’État n’est pas assurée ou assumée ».

MEXIQUE 🇲🇽 (cartel de Tijuana) : fin de peine aux USA, Eduardo Arellano Félix a été incarcéré dans la foulée au pénitencier de haute sécurité d’El Altiplano près de Mexico

«El Doctor», ex-parrain de la drogue, extradé au Mexique

Eduardo Arellano Félix, 64 ans, avait été arrêté à Tijuana (Basse-Californie) en octobre 2008 et extradé vers les États-Unis en août 2012. Condamné à quinze ans de détention, il en a purgé treize. Il est l’un des dix frères et sœurs qui ont dirigé tour à tour le cartel de Tijuana.

Washington a remis lundi aux autorités mexicaines l’ancien chef du cartel de Tijuana, Eduardo Arellano Félix, diplômé de médecine, qui a fini de purger sa peine de prison aux Etats-Unis. Le trafiquant a été remis sur le pont international qui sépare Brownsville (Texas) de Matamoros dans l’Etat mexicain de Tamaulipas. Incarcéré dans la foulée au pénitencier de haute sécurité d’El Altiplano près de Mexico, il devra répondre devant la justice de «responsabilité probable dans les délits de crime organisé et contre la santé, et d’association de malfaiteurs», a précisé le parquet.

HAÏTI 🇭🇹 (Assassinat du président haïtien Jovenel Moïse) : la piste du trafic de drogue

Et bien à la lecture de l’article paru dans « Courrier International« , les langues se délient enfin !

La DEA ne pouvait pas ignorer la situation en Haïti.

Bien qu’officiellement le meurtre du chef d’État haïtien Jovenel Moïse dans la nuit du 7 juillet reste toujours inexpliqué, l’enquête du New York Times, souligne que cet assassinat pourrait bien être lié à un vaste complot de trafiquants de cocaïne et d’héroïne couverts par de hautes autorités locales.

DEA 🇺🇸 – DNRED 🇫🇷 – RCMP-GRC 🇨🇦 (opération Dinero) : où la lâcheté du DG François Auvigne de la Douane française se démontre

PARODIE de Justice
à
BATHURST – NB – CANADA
En juin 1998, la Justice canadienne…poursuit Carlos Hernandes Rumbaut et…l’acquitta avec l’aide de la GRC/RCMP en octobre !
Parodie de justice à Bathurst-NB Canada!
Le procès de Carlos Miguel Hernandes-Rumbaut, accusé de conspiration dans le but d’importer de la cocaïne au pays, a débuté à Bathurst. L’homme de 53 ans avait été arrêté en 1994, suite à une importante descente policière au large de Shelburne, en Nouvelle-Écosse, qui avait mené à la saisie de cinq tonnes de cocaïne d’une valeur totale de plus d’un milliard de dollars.

Rumbaut est soupçonné d’être une des têtes dirigeantes du groupe qui tentait de faire entrer la drogue au pays. Dix personnes ont déjà été emprisonnées pour leur participation dans ce crime, dont Marc Fievet, qui sert une peine de prison à vie au pénitencier de Springhill, en Nouvelle-Écosse.http://www.radio-canada.ca/nouvelles/11/11363.htm

Parodie de justice à Bathurst-NB Canada! Dans les quelques 3 000 pages des 70 000 pages du dossier que le gendarme Fournier a donné à Marc Fievet, seules preuves auxquelles il eut accès, il s’avère qu’il n’y avait aucune trace des enregistrements des conversations téléphoniques de Messieurs Claudio Locatelli et Carlos Hernandes Rumbaut en place à Montréal au moment des faits.
Marc Fievet a eu accès au dossier de Jürgen Kirchhoff, le capitaine du Pacifico, et, grâce à sa complaisance, il a pu récupérer les enregistrements de ces trafiquants.

Marc Fievet précise que:

Le mercredi vingt-deux octobre 1997, les gendarmes Degresley et Fournier sont venus me rendre visite au pénitencier de Springhill en Nouvelle Écosse et m’ont rapporté une partie de mon dossier de défense. Le reste sous quinzaine me diront-ils

Le gendarme de la GRC Degresley me demande d’agir sur le capitaine du Pacifico, Jürgen Kirchhoff, détenu dans le même pénitencier que moi pour qu’il supprime son appel. J’accepte, pour que personne ne se méprenne sur mon appartenance à la DNRED.
A ma demande, Jürgen Kirchhoff, le capitaine propriétaire du cargo Pacifico se désistera, pourtant les avocats de Kirchhoff étaient sûrs de faire casser le jugement de la saisie du M/S Pacifico qui étant illégale reste illégale.
La « légalisation » de la saisie du M /V Pacifico en Eaux Internationales n’avait pu intervenir qu’en utilisant la seule jurisprudence créée par la saisie en haute mer du M/V Poseidon, décrétée légale par le juge Devonshire dans le jugement de Mills **.
La GRC a déjà récupéré le montant de la vente du Pacifico, obtenue après dessaisissement du juge Alex Deschenes qui ne voulait pas légaliser cet acte de piraterie.
Pourquoi se compliquer la vie, ici au Canada, comme ailleurs, quand un juge ne veut pas enfreindre la loi, il suffit d’en changer!
Le nouveau juge canadien Roger McIntyre se verra offrir un voyage à Londres pour rencontrer le juge Devonshire pour conforter la décision qu’il doit prendre et demander au juge Devonshire d’ajouter dans le jugement de Mills **, le narco anglais condamné pour la saisie « légale » en haute mer du Poseidon afin que cette dernière soit utilisée comme jurisprudence.
La « pression » qu’il a de la GRC est très forte puisque le fils du juge Roger McIntyre est poursuivi par la GRC pour trafic de stupéfiant.
Pour récompenser la docilité et la soumission de ce juge acceptant la collusion, les poursuites contre le fils du juge McIntyre seront abandonnées.
 
Le Narco trafiquant Carlos Hernandez-Reumbeaut, toujours incarcéré à Renous, plaide non coupable sur les charges sur lesquelles, moi Marc Fiévet, l’agent infiltré, j’ai dû plaider coupable. Il ne craint plus qu’un seul témoignage: mon témoignage. Les Autorités canadiennes, par le sergent Degresley et le gendarme Fournier, m’informent que Carlos Hernandez-Reumbeaut a émis des menaces de mort sur ma famille si  je me décidais à témoigner contre lui.
 
Ils utiliseront le service de sécurité de la prison de Springhill, N.S, pour me faire parvenir ces menaces. Ces menaces seront également transmises à l’ambassade de France d’Ottawa, Ambassadeur Loïc Hennekinne * et aux Douanes françaises.
Le consul général de France à Moncton, Monsieur Olivier Arribe me confirme ces menaces et me dit lors d’une visite, que ces menaces ont été prises très au sérieux par les Autorités françaises.
*En 2000, par courrier, le secrétaire général du Quai d’Orsay qu’est devenu Loîck Hennekinne, me dira qu’il n’avait plus souvenir des menaces transmises par les gendarmes canadiens…**Mills: Narco anglais impliqué dans l’affaire Poseidon

Carlos Hernandes Rumbaut acquitté….

Carlos Hernandes Rumbaut, le présumé co-dirigeant d’un complot pour importer 5,5 tonnes de cocaïne au Canada, qui a été acquitté lundi à Bathurst, est en route pour Montréal où Immigration Canada décidera de son sort. L’avocat de Carlos Rumbaut, Scott Fowler, a indiqué à Radio-Canada que les autorités avaient placé son client dans un avion lundi soir à Moncton sans que celui-ci puisse le contacter. L’homme a cependant été pris d’un malaise à bord de l’appareil et les autorités ont dû opter de faire le trajet jusqu’à Montréal en automobile. Rumbaut n’a pas été libéré immédiatement après son acquittement car Immigration Canada affirme qu’il est techniquement au pays illégalement.

http://www.radio-canada.ca/nouvelles/16/16662.htm

Les vraies raisons de cet acquittement !

CIA hand Lucien Conein named head of DEA’s special operations branch.

He created a deep-cover CIA/DEA narcotics op in Miami, code-named Buncin/Deacon, and recruited a staff of 19 – anti-castro contract agents.

Documents released under FOIA to researcher John Hill describe a gentlemen’s agreement between CIA and the justice department to ask for dismissals rather than expose sources or techniques. convicted drug smuggler and bay of pigs vet Carlos Hernandez Rumbaut, continued his trafficking activity through 1976. justice dumped the agreement in 1976, but Conein had worked out a « crossover » arrangement whereby DEA would claim that any CIA asset busted for narcotics smuggling was on a deep-cover DEA assignment. none of CIA’s cubans were prosecuted for drug smuggling. 27 u.s. prosecutions of latin america drug cases and two other major cases had to be dropped because of CIA’s domestic involvement.

COLOMBIA 🇨🇴 (Barranquilla y Cartagena) : desarticulan banda de buzos que adhería droga a buques de carga

Las investigaciones permitieron conocer que la organización ilegal obtenía la sustancia ilícita en el Catatumbo y la transportaba vía terrestre a inmediaciones de las zonas portuarias de Barranquilla.

Luego de varias incautaciones realizadas en aguas del mar Caribe y en los puertos de la costa Atlántica, en las que fueron encontrados estupefacientes adheridos a los buques de carga o embalados para ser sometidos a un método de transporte subacuático, pusieron en evidencia a ‘Los Buzos’.

La Fiscalía General de la Nación, en un trabajo articulado con la DIJIN de la Policía Nacional y agencias estadounidenses, identificaron y capturaron a ocho presuntos integrantes de esta red narcotraficante trasnacional que estaría involucrada en la salida de cocaína a Estados Unidos y países de Centroamérica y Europa.

CANADA 🇨🇦 : sur infos de la DEA, saisie de 2 tonnes d’opium par la Police provinciale de l’Ontario (OPP) en avril 2020 à Wentworth-Nord, dans les Laurentides au Québec

La preuve présentée en cour a permis de lever un peu le voile sur les méthodes discrètes des trafiquants, qui contrôlaient cette spectaculaire quantité de drogue, opéraient dans la région de Toronto et auraient eu des ramifications en Europe et au Moyen-Orient.

Les enquêteurs ontariens ont rapidement identifié des suspects et observé des transactions à coups de kilogramme d’opium dans la région de la Ville Reine. Le 22 avril, ils ont observé l’un des deux individus en train de discuter avec un autre homme dans un stationnement, l’ont vu prendre un sac de hockey dans le véhicule de ce dernier et le déposer dans son camion. Ils l’ont suivi et l’ont intercepté à Trenton. Dans le camion, ils ont retrouvé le sac de hockey qui contenait 28 kilogrammes d’opium.

Après avoir obtenu un mandat, les enquêteurs de la Police provinciale de l’Ontario (OPP) ont perquisitionné dans la maison des Laurentides louée par un certain Hans Lanzrath, 68 ans, ressortissant allemand sans statut au Canada et résidant de la ville de Bonn.

Lanzrath en voiture de patrouille à destination d’un poste de police, un policier du SPVM, qui a pris part à la perquisition, a constaté la présence d’un porte-clés dans le manteau du suspect. Le porte-clés contenait la clé d’un garage attenant à la maison et celles d’une remorque munie de trois serrures.

Les enquêteurs ont alors ouvert le garage et la remorque, et découvert dans celle-ci 1975 kilos d’opium.

USA 🇺🇸 (Port Everglades) : Coast Guard Cutter James conducts largest illegal narcotic offload in Coast Guard history worth more than $1.4 billion

MIAMI — Coast Guard Cutter James’ crew offloaded approximately 59,700 pounds of cocaine and 1,430 pounds of marijuana worth more than $1.4 billion, Thursday, at Port Everglades, which is the largest offload in Coast Guard history.

The Coast Guard’s strong international relationships, with key partners like Canada and the Netherlands, along with our specialized capabilities and unmatched authorities, allow for a unity of effort to disrupt transnational crime organizations, which threaten America and our partner nations.

« Today’s offload is a result of our combined efforts of our inter-agency partners and a dedicated international coalition, » said Vice Adm. Steven Poulin, Commander Atlantic Area. « The Canadian government and Canadian Defence Forces brings an incredible capability in defeating transnational organized crime, and I’m grateful to HMCS Shawinigan to showcase Canada’s commitment. Together we will disrupt, defeat and degrade transnational organized crime. We will strengthen our efforts and continue to build collaboration and capability. »

« Canada and America are committed to expanding cooperation on defending North America against illicit trafficking and transnational crime and working together within our alliances, » said Maj. Gen. Paul Ormsby, Canadian Defence Attache. « We know that no nation can do it alone, and we know that we are stronger together. The kind of cooperation that we see on the pier today is one of the thousands of impressive examples of cooperation every day. »

The drugs were interdicted in international waters of the Eastern Pacific Ocean off the coasts of Mexico, Central and South America, and the Caribbean Sea including contraband seized and recovered during 27 interdictions of suspected drug smuggling vessels by 10 American, Dutch and Canadian ships:

Numerous U.S. agencies from the Departments of Defense, Justice and Homeland Security cooperated in the effort to combat transnational organized crime.

The Coast Guard, Navy, Customs and Border Protection, FBI, DEA (Drug Enforcement Administration), and Immigration and Customs Enforcement, along with allied and international partner agencies, play a role in counter-drug operations. The fight against drug cartels in the Eastern Pacific Ocean requires unity of effort in all phases from detection, monitoring and interdictions, to criminal prosecutions by U.S. Attorneys in districts across the nation.

During at-sea interdictions, a suspect vessel is initially detected and monitored by allied, military or law enforcement personnel coordinated by Joint Interagency Task Force-South based in Key West, Florida. The law enforcement phase of counter-smuggling operations in the Eastern Pacific is conducted under the authority of the Coast Guard 11th District, headquartered in Alameda, California. The interdictions, including the actual boardings, are led and conducted by members of the U.S. Coast Guard.
