Summarizing an article on the Svenska Dagbladed web page: Swiss bank accounts are no longer good for hiding illegal money. The Swiss government has, for the first time, paid money smuggled out by a former dictator to the country's current government. The Swiss government returned about $2 million that was hidden in a Swiss bank account by Moussa Traore, former dictator of Mali. Processes are currently underway regarding Zaire's former dicator Sese Seko Mobuto and Phillipine dictator Ferdinand Marcos, and several others. Martin Minow minow@apple.com
