Yasser Safa Busted with 5 Kilos in Panama
Fri, February 2, 2007

He's been known in Belize for selling a bunch of stolen SUVs and pulling off major check fraud, but that's light heat compared to what Yasser Safa is feeling now. 7NEWS has confirmed that Safa, who is a Lebanese born naturalized Belizean, was busted in Panama with 3 kilos of cocaine. Details are scarce, but we do know that he is being held in that country, and is reportedly facing ten years in prison. And apart form all his hustles in Belize, after which remarkably he was still a free man, according to our reports, the prolific Mr. Safa had also been busted in Mexico some time ago on a human trafficking charge, but was traded back into Belize on a prisoner exchange programme.
