40. Bolivia gang 'fought in Balkans'
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/americas/8005592.stm


Bolivia's president is following events at home while at an Americas summit

Two members of a mercenary gang said to have plotted to kill Bolivian President Evo Morales were veterans of the Balkan wars of the 1990s, reports say.

Three died and two were arrested in the eastern city of Santa Cruz after police fought a gunbattle with the group.

Bolivian police officials said two of the five fought for Croatian independence. The three others are said to be Irish, Romanian and Hungarian.

The boys are out to make trouble.
