'

j
By Sharon LaFraniere
l
Washington Post Staff Writer
federal drug enforcement
offi-
cios said yesterday they have dis-
rupted the money-laundering wing
oflthe
leading Colombian
cocaine
cartel by arresting more than 150
people in six countries and seizing
nearly $42
million
in
illegal drug
profits.

Enforcement
Administra-

officials
said
the
three-year
undercover effort was the
first

stance of international cooperation
onj a
drug-money-laundering
case
and the first time authorities uncov-
enough evidence
to
link the
ombian Cali drug cartel to the
Sicilian Mafia.
nong those charged were sev-
en] top money managers for the Cali
cartel, now Columbia's most pow-
er ul
cocaine-trafficking
organiza-
tion, according to the DEA. Tom
Cl fford, a DEA supervisor in San
Di igo who coordinated the
inves-
ts ation, estimated that the cartel
still employs dozens
of other top

managers.

real bite out of their hide with these
seven guys.”
In
Rome,
a
top-ranking
Italian
police official said the arrests would
damage
the
alliance between
the
Colombian
cartel and
the
Sicilian
Mafia. "We have carried out many
operations with the Americans but
this is the biggest and most signif-
icant,"
said
police
official
Achille
Serra.
After Attorney General William
P. Barr authorized the investigation
in September
1989,
Clifford
said,
DEA
agents
established
a
phony
investment
consulting firm named
Trans Americas Ventures
Associ-
ates. Undercover agents relied on
informants to introduce -the "firm”
to the Cali cartel as an efficient col-
lector of drug profits.
“Our whole purpose was to
ar-
range
the
collection
of
funds,”
said
Clifford.
"We
told
.them we
had, the
capability
to
collect
any-
where
in the world. We
told them
we
had
representatives -jn- other
countries.”
At the suggestion of cartel oper-
atives, he said, undercover agents
set
up
fake
leather
goods
busi-
nesses,
leasing
warehouses
in
Houston! Fort Lauderdale, Miami,
Chicago and New York. The cartel
members shipped a token amount of
merchandise but pretended
to ex-
port much more. That generated
false paperwork they could then use
to justify their Colombian bank de-
posits of illegal drug profits, Clifford
said.
Clifford said
it took a year to es-
tablish
the phony corporation,
an-
other year to win the trust of the
cartel and a third to actually run the
operation. Wery slowly, they came
to trust us,” he said.
Just
before
the
arrests,
under-
cover agents arranged
to receive
cocaine shipments
that were then
; seized. Three hundred kilos of co-
caine is still "on its way on a boat,"
he said.
o ^Undercover agents were able to
; convince the seven alleged money
brokers to leave Colombia for meet-
ings and parties in San Diego, Cos
Rica and Italy. DEA Administrat
Robert C. Bonner said
that whil
some were arrested abroad, he e)
pects
all seven
to be
tried
in
th
United States.
Bonner
said
112

land, Spain and Costa Rica.
Italia
police
officials said one defendan
who had 12 different identities, dc
vised some of the cartel's more
ir
genious
methods
of
smugglin
drugs
into Europe.
Italians ident
fied
five
bogus organizations
th?
helped
the
cartel
launder monej
including one posing as an anim;
rights group, police said.
About 70 of those arrested in th
United States were "cell heads an
cell members"—worker bees in th
cartel,
according
to
Clifford. Th
rest were more significant player
he said.
