Peruvian lightplane likely kidnapped by drug dealers
June 12, 2010
“There is a 99-percent possibility that the plane had been kidnapped by drug traffickers,” Jorge Belevan, a spokesman for the Aerodiana company, told reporters one day after the aircraft went missing.
Clues have indicated the Cessna type small plane, originally bound for Peru’s famed Nazca Lines, has been diverted to Bolivia or Brazil by the kidnappers, he said.
IDs presented by all the seven passengers aboard have found to be fake, added Belevan.
Authorities have sent nine planes and three ground patrols to search for the missing plane but have so far failed to find it.
