Panamanian police descended on a small, private island off the Pacific coast of the Central American nation. They arrested the island’s owner, a middle-aged Colombian named Jose Nelson Urrego Cardenas, as well as his 20-year-old girlfriend, who testified before Panamanian prosecutors.
The police also found a sophisticated communications center on the island that is a clue to Urrego’s occupation and to his connection to the Gulfstream II jet that fell from the sky over Mexico’s Yucatan peninsula about a week after his arrest — with close to four tons of cocaine onboard.A revelation about the Gulfstream II incident that connects the cocaine onboard directly to the U.S. government via an informant and convicted narco-trafficker: Urrego.
In addition, press reports in Latin America add credence to Vega’s revelations, which help to piece together the fabric of long-running DEA, ICE and CIA operations in Panama, Colombia and Mexico.
