"Swiss NGO Links Los Angeles Killing to Timber Corruption in Malaysia" [1]

"BASEL, Switzerland -- Protests over timber corruption that has made a billionaire of the chief minister of the Malaysian state of Sarawak and enriched his family at the expense of the state's indigenous and other citizens have spilled over to the streets of San Francisco, Seattle, Ottawa and London.

A Swiss nonprofit organization is asking the law enforcement authorities in the United States to investigate what they allege is a murder on U.S. soil and illegally acquired assets stashed in the United States as well as other countries."

Environment News Service had the story March 9, 2011.
