Vesco law provokes protests in Costa Rica
Security forces battled a rock throwing demonstration outside Costa Rica's Legislative Assembly over the Vesco extradition bill. About 2,000 students chanted Sovereignty yes Yankees no and Vesco no, breaking windows as the assembly passed a measure allowing extradition of foreigners on simple requests. The law, tied to asylum references, aims to extradite Vesco, now splitting time between Costa Rica and the Bahamas, amid longstanding links to President Figueres and related finance cases.
