a Colombian, 28 years of age; Rubiela Guerra Bravo, of the same nationality,
; 20 years old; and Jose Holman A~udelo Sernandez, also a�Colombian, aged 19.
= In three suitcases outfitted for the purpose in the city of .Santa Cruz de

of cocaine "base." This type of drug had been packed with a special com- -
- pressor in Boiivia and, whe~ the packages which they were carrying were
oper.ed, and the contents crystallized, they amounted to tha sizable volume
of 60 kilograns. -

Also in synchronized fashion, when .the Federal Pciice had received th~ infor- _

monthly entrq of that drug was 1,000 kilograms, brought in by the disbanded -

with impunity.
The operations canducted in aur countr~, whicr. represent a loss of ab:,ut ~o -
