Vesco Arrested in Nassau on U S Warrant
Bahamian arrest of financier Robert L. Vesco follows a U S warrant for fraud and embezzlement from a UNESCO linked firm. He faces extradition hearings next week after being taken into custody at the Bahamas Commonwealth Bank. The case ties to a conspiracy with former officials including John N. Mitchell and Maurice H. Stans and a 200000 dollar contribution to Nixon re election efforts, plus an SEC civil suit.
