A view of the dead body that was found in Harare, along with 67 tonnes of banknotes, in an apparently CIA-owned plane making what was later claimed to be a "Diplomatic Shipment"

On 13 February 2016, a McDonnell Douglas MD-11 owned by Western Global Airlines made an emergency landing at the Zimbabwean capital Harare.[1] Authorities became suspicious after noticing that blood dripping from the plane. The Zimbabwe Herald reported that "the ground crew refueling the plane alerted local authorities." The crew claimed that this was because the plane had struck a bird, but it turned out to be coming from the severed arm of a dead man.[2] The plane was carrying 67 tonnes of South African cash. The plane was impounded[3] but later released, together with the crew.[4][5]

5star.png 19 August 2016 Robin  67 tons of cash and a body found on a CIA plane. Western media uninterested.
This is, particularly in light of other CIA plane events linked to the global illegal drug trade, not a story which should not be allowed to slip down the memory hole.
