Switzerland is handing over to Mexico £74m (£38m) from frozen bank accounts of the brother of former Mexican President Carlos Salinas de Gortari.

Money from Raul Salinas's accounts was being returned to the Mexican government because it had criminal origins, Swiss authorities said.

Raul Salinas, who was an official during his brother's 1988-1994 administration, denies any wrongdoing.

More than $110m in Mr Salinas's Swiss accounts were frozen in 1995.

1. I have never heard of Switzerland return money from 'Secret' accounts!

Maybe there is hope to get back the money Cheney stole from us.

All of those billions and billions paid to Halliburton, Kellogg Brown and Root, the Carlyle Group, Blackwater, and all the rest could be returned to the American people.

I would also hope there would be a substantial finder's fee paid to Liberal groups for the service of exposing these criminals.
