U S Agents Break Up Smuggling Ring
U S Treasury ministry agents halted a large silver smuggling operation moving over 425000 dollars in old coins from Mexico to the United States. Mexican engineer Ignacio Bolivar Cisneros organized purchases in Guadalajara and transported coins to Nogales via his trucks, aided by Nogales customs agents and others, earning about 64000 dollars profit. The ministry linked the case to a prior million-dollar ring exposed last August with disciplinary actions.
