Extractions: Organised crime in the former Eastern Block has become a major concern since the iron curtain fell in 1990. "The situation of organised crime in Eastern Europe is directly connected with economic differences between the East and the West," said Raimond Edward Kendall, the Secretary general of Interpol, at a visit in Slovakia in April 1995. As the country's society has undergone transformation it has seen changes on the criminal scene too: an unprecedented rise in the crime rate and the emergence of new elements in criminal activity, like organised crime. "Because of the high figures involved in illegal operations, certain people are able to commit large-scale criminal activities in an indirect way, using others entrusted with specific assignments. Such groups show a clear tendency to engage in criminal activities in a well-planned and systematic manner," Jozef Holdos, President of Police Corps in Slovakia said as he explained the complexities of the almost impenetrable structures.

First National Bank of Maryland: For two years, 1983-1985, the First National Bank of Maryland was used by Associated Traders, a CIA proprietary company, to make payments for covert operations. Associated traders used its accounts at First National to supply $23 million in arms for covert operations in Afghanistan, Angola, Chad, and Nicaragua (Bainerman, 1992; 276-277; Covert Action 35, 1990). The links between the First National Bank of Maryland and the CIA were exposed in a lawsuit filed in Federal District Court by Robert Maxwell, a high-ranking bank officer. Maxwell charged in that suit that he had been asked to commit crimes on behalf of the CIA. Specifically, he charged that he was asked to conceal Associated Traders' business activities, which by law he was required to specify on all letters of credit. Maxwell alleged that he had been physically threatened and forced to leave his job after asking that his superiors supply him with a letter stating that the activities he was being asked to engage in were legal. In responding to Maxwell's lawsuit, attorneys for the bank state that "a relationship between First National and the CIA and Associated Traders was classified information which could neither be confirmed nor denied (Bainerman, 1992: 276-277; Washington Business Journal, February 5, 1990).

Extractions: In Canada, Italian-based criminals either belong or are connected to one of three main organizations: the Sicilian mafia, the 'Ndrangheta or the American arm of the Cosa Nostra. The Sicilian mafia, the most influential of the three, has ties to other Sicilian clans in Canada and elsewhere, particularly Venezuela, the United States and Italy. All of these organizations maintain close ties with Asian and East European-based organized crime, outlaw motorcycle gangs, Colombian and other South American groups, and various domestic criminal organizations. They participate in joint criminal ventures with these groups in the pursuit of mutual profit, particularly in the movement of drugs into Canada and providing assistance for the laundering of drug proceeds. TOC members are involved across Canada in a variety of criminal endeavours including drug smuggling and trafficking, illegal gaming, money laundering, extortion, and loan-sharking. Illegal gaming activities include backroom gambling, sports betting, and illegal video lottery gaming terminals. Profits from these criminal activities are invested in both legitimate commercial enterprises as well as their on-going criminal operations.

Extractions: DILI, East Timor The fledgling nation of East Timor risks being exploited by organized crime and developing institutionalized corruption, because of its poverty and rudimentary legal system. The head of the Australian Federal Police, Mick Kelty, said Sunday East Timor could be vulnerable to drug traffickers, money launderers and those engaged in the sexual exploitation of children. The warning comes two days after East Timor's President Xanana Gusmao urged his people to focus on the task of nation-building in the face of a growing law and order problem. In a national televised address marking his first 100 days in power, Gusmao said East Timor still had no laws on immigration and citizenship or public prosecution. "If we continue to roam, with no strength to enforce the law right at the beginning of our independence, by the time corruption develops deep roots it will be most difficult to combat it," Reuters reports Gusmao saying.

"There you will find a large stable of very bright hackers, scientists and criminal underground," Laykin told TechNewsWorld. Click here for the tour Internet security experts are divided on the source and purpose of computer viruses and worms like Blaster and SoBig. But some government agencies are investigating a possible connection between the increasing spread of infected computers and organized crime. Recent trends are leading many experts to worry that malicious code buried in infected computers or released in new generations of worms will spawn targeted criminal attacks against business and industry. "That is definitely a legitimate concern," said Michael Shema, a widely recognized expert on Internet security and author of two books on the hacker mentality. Shema said there is considerable evidence to support what otherwise would be romantic conspiracy theories about the connection of viruses to the world of organized crime.

The indictment, handed down Wednesday in Manhattan federal court said Alimzhan Tokhtakhounov influenced members of both the Russian and French skating federations. The French judge's vote for the Russian pairs figure skating team ensured the Russians a gold medal, while in exchange, the Russians ensured the French ice dancing team would win that event's gold medal. During the ice skating competition in February, the Russian team of Elena Bereznaia and Anton Sikharulizde, who skated a flawed performance, were awarded the gold medal, while the Canadian team of Jamie Sale and David Pelletier, with a near-perfect performance, were originally given the silver.

They got $300,000 wired to them via Western Union from sources in Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates.
