Morales assassins: Bolivia gang "fought in Balkans"

My emphasis in bold, as the location where the weapons were found is significant:

Bolivia probes into arms trade from USA

La Paz: Bolivia has started an investigation into the relation between trade of 60 war rifles from the United States and the terrorist cell neutralised April last year in eastern Santa Cruz department.

Attorney General Marcelo Soza, in charge of the case, said they would ask the Foreign Ministry to request a report from the US judicial authorities.

"We are going to see the scope of its relation with the case we are investigating. We are not ruling out anything, but will establish if there is any relation to adopt relevant measures later," he clarified.

Soza also said the group of foreign mercenaries, led by Croatian-Bolivian Eduardo Rozsa Flores, who was killed in the operation on Apr 16 2009, used to buy weapons and kept them in deposits in Santa Cruz, Beni and other regions in the Andean country.

The day of the operation that dismantled the separatist group, they also found one of the arms deposits at the Santa Cruz telephone Cooperative (COTAS) stand, he recalled.

On Sunday, Bolivian Vice President Alvaro Garcia said the probe into arms trade is a "delicate" issue that compromises the Multinational State security.

Garcia said they had confirmation that the group was planning to ship over 60 war rifles.

From earlier in this thread (post #92):

From IKN in South America:

El Gaviero today picked up on reports from Bolivia that dead mercenary gang leader, Eduardo Rozsa Flores, was hired under a false name by the Santa Cruz COTAS telephone company. Why is this significant? Let me count the ways:

1) Why hire somebody under an assumed name if there's no skullduggery going on?

2) Note that arsenal of weapons found after the shootout and death/arrest of the gang of five? Yep, they were found hidden at a trade fair in the COTAS stand (the C-4 wisely in the fridge, considering the heat this time of year). Funny that, innit?

3) Remember those secret, unofficial and non-associated masonic lodges in Santa Cruz I wrote about last week? Well surprise surprise, it's well-known that COTAS is controlled by the very same people that head up those two "Toborochi" and "Caballeros del Oriente" lodges.

4) Some claim that COTAS is under one lodge's control, some claim the other. Some note that the two lodges split with each other after a spat in the early 1980's, other say they've mended relations and work in cahoots nowadays. Some say that Ruben Costas heads up Caballeros del Oriente, but nearly everyone says that Branko Marinkovic is the head guy at Toborochi.

So slowly but surely, the investigation is, unsurprisingly, homing in on the secret societies that run Santa Cruz and the fascists running those groups. The same secret societies that have been the subject of confessions from ex-members saying that they are actively trying to destabilize their country.

Nuff said. That poor sap Dwyer really had no idea of the trouble he was letting himself in for.
