from a friend....

PGtv is reporting this morning that Guatemalan police crossed into Belize and arrested a wanted murder suspect in PG. Wil Maheia has a picture on his Facebook page of the Guatemalan police detaining the suspect. It appears the operation had the blessings of the Belizean police, although details are sketchy right now. Even if the Belizean police authorized the action, it seems a rather odd way of doing things and predictably some people are angry over sovereignty issues. No doubt we will be hearing more about this in the next few days.

Speaking of Wil Maheia, one of the Wikileaks cables released on August 30 was an overview of all the major 3rd party outfits in Belize. Wil was rated the most organized and effective. I sent him a message informing him of the cable and told him I hoped it would not be a negative for his reputation in Belize to have the Yanks praising him.
