Zimbabwe seizes suspected mercenaries

HARARE (Reuters) - Zimbabwe has seized a U.S.-registered cargo plane carrying 64 suspected mercenaries of
various nationalities and a cargo of military gear, officials say.

The Boeing 727-100 aircraft was impounded on Sunday evening at Harare International Airport "after its owners had
made a false declaration of its cargo and crew," said Home Affairs (Interior) Minister Kembo Mohadi in a statement.

"The plane was actually carrying 64 suspected mercenaries of various nationalities," Mohadi said on Monday, adding
an investigation had also found military material.

Authorities said no formal charges had been made. The U.S. Embassy in Harare said they had no details on the
incident.

Mohadi said more investigations were under way to establish the identities of the passengers and the nature of their
trip. There was no word on where the airplane arrived from, or whether Zimbabwe was its destination.

Mohadi said a fuller statement would be released later.

Reporters were taken aboard the plane to examine the cargo, which included a rubber dinghy, military uniforms, wire
cutters, armour, compasses and other military hardware, said chief police spokesman Assistant Commissioner Wayne
Bvudzijena.

"There was a false declaration by the captain and also investigations are leading in that direction that these are
possible mercenaries," Bvudzijena said.

Footage on state television showed a white plane with the figure N4610 printed on the body. Several army personnel
were shown sifting through equipment including what appeared to be army boots, communication radios and sleeping
bags.

U.S. Federal Aviation Administration records show N4610 to be a 727 plane registered to Dodson Aviation Inc.
based in Ottawa, Kansas.

Dodson Aviation says it sold the plane in question about a week ago to an African company called Logo Ltd.

Officials have given no breakdown of nationalities of those aboard the plane. The Zimbabwe Broadcasting Corp said
they were mostly whites.

President Robert Mugabe has been in a war of words with the United States and Britain, which have accused him of a
political crackdown following his victory in 2002 presidential elections which the opposition and Western observers said
were flawed.

Mugabe accuses Western powers of attempting to undermine his government in retaliation for his controversial
seizure of white-owned farms for distribution to landless blacks.

ANG ist übrigens die "Air National Guard"
zu finden hier: www.ang.af.mil

Zitat aus der Website:I Am the Guard. Wherever a Strong Arm and Valiant Spirit Must Defend the Nation, in Peace or War, Wherever a Child Cries, or a Woman Weeps in Time of Disaster, There I Stand ... I Am the Guard. For Three Centuries a Soldier (or Airman) in War, a Civilian in Peace - of Security and Honor, I am the Custodian, Now and Forever ... I Am the Guard

Na da weiß man wieder wieso die Deutschen den Amis nach WKII soviele 2beinige trojanische Pferde mit nach Hause mitgegeben haben .... :(

Ach ja:
Die Such nach "Logo Ltd" liefert ganze 4,440,000 Treffer ...
Also gleichbedeutend mit "Go Ltd" oder "See Ltd" ... gefickt eingeschädelt.


Und wer jetzt etwa spontan an "Air America" denken sollte...
