Vesco denies arms smuggling charges in Costa Rica

Fugitive financier Robert L. Vesco calls weapons smuggling allegations ridiculous. Washington sources say arms and call girls were sent from the United States to Vesco in Costa Rica. Vesco asserts he no longer lives in the U.S. and wishes to stay in Costa Rica, while Costa Rican officials press investigations and warn guns must be turned over to the government. Vesco faces U.S. indictments over a political contribution and fund fraud inquiries, with extradition requests previously denied by Costa Rica's Supreme Court.
