Morales assassins: Bolivia gang "fought in Balkans"

[Jan Klimkowski]

Here's a little more info on Eduardo Rosza Flores' execution/dirty tricks outfit known in some circles as the "Croatian International Brigade". NB it's revealing that the "Croatian journalist" is not named. Of course a knowedgable Croatian source essentially confirming the conclusion reached in this this thread some days ago - ie that Rosza Flores executed the whistleblowers (including journalists) who were about to expose his neo-Nazi/Opus Dei/narco/arms smuggling operation - blows the coverup narrative out of the water:

(Rosza Flores) becoming commander of a brigade of 380 foreigners, the First International Platoon, known by its Croatian initials, PIV.

"He was an action-chaser," a Croatian journalist with years investigating connections between foreign mercenaries and Croatian secret services tells TIME. "PIV was a notorious group: 95% of them had criminal histories, many were part of Nazi and fascist groups, from Germany to Ireland." Rozsa rose to the status of Major and gained a reputation for brashness — before scandal hit in December of 1991. That's when a PIV enlistee named Christian Wurtemburg, a Swiss national, turned up dead — tortured and garroted. British journalist Paul Jenks began investigating Wurtemburg's death and was shot dead as well. (British journalist John Sweeney made a movie about the deaths in 1994 for Channel 4 called Dying for the Truth.)

"Many here firmly believe that Rozsa was responsible for these deaths," the Croatian journalist tells TIME, explaining that Rozsa had accused Wurtemburg of being a spy and ordered him to be punished. He did not like anyone sniffing around the incident and probably had a hand in Jenks' shooting. Still, Rozsa was never officially charged for the acts, and soon after he left Croatia.

Also note that Rosza Flores returned to Bolivia, the country of his birth, largely incommunicado. And yet this is a man who is happy in the limelight - eg "Chico" and his National Anarchist - ie National Socialist - proselytizing.

A source in the Bolivian government confirmed for TIME that Rosza last entered Bolivia in early September of last year. That's also when Rosza's regular broadcasting of his life via his half-dozen personal blogs comes to an abrupt end. He appears only in the online photo album of Michael Dwyer, Rosza's supposed Irish-born cohort who was killed in the hotel room next to Rosza's last Thursday. The photo shows him enjoying Carnival festivities in late February.

The Bolivian government has been slow in handing out any more details of the alleged assassination plots that finally sent Rozsa to his grave, aside from saying they believe there are plenty more armed groups in Bolivia — and that ties are emerging between the dead men and conservative opposition party members and prominent Santa Cruz businessmen, though so far they won't name anyone. Morales' political opposition has adamantly denied any link to the accused terrorists and says that the government faked the episode in order to execute the men. Rozsa's cousin has been his only family member to step forward in his defense, and has denied his dead relative's involvement in such a plot; but he has not offered an explanation as to what exactly Rozsa was doing in Bolivia recently.
