Prosecutors agree to free $6 M of Noriega’s assets Defense attorneys push for release of accounts MIAMI (AP) — Federal prosecu tors agreed Wednesday to release up to $6 million from Manuel Noriega’s European bank accounts, saying they wanted to move quickly with the drug trafficking case against the for mer Panamanian leader. Meanwhile, Panama’s new gov ernment told the court it will file a $5.3 billion lawsuit against Noriega, accusing him of racketeering, in cluding murder, theft and fraud against the Panamanian people. U.S. District Judge William Hoe- veler took note of the civil lawsuit, to be filed in the next two weeks, but said he wouldn’t allow it to interfere with the criminal proceeding against Noriega. Assistant U.S. attorney Michael Sullivan said the agreement to unf reeze $4.5 million to $6 million in as sets solves a legal battle that began April 29, when defense attorneys threatened to withdraw from the case. They said the government’s sei zure of $20 million of Noriega’s as sets deprived them of fees and ex penses. Sullivan warned that judges both in the United States and Europe would have to approve the releases. “We have agreed to make our best effort to unfreeze accounts that are currently frozen in Europe,” he said. Lead defense attorney Frank Ru- bino said his team of five attorneys was satisfied with the agreement. “We feel we now will have the ability to go forward and give Gen. Noreiga the defense he deserves.” The agreement avoids a court Fight over payments made by the CIA and other intelligence agencies to the former Panamanian leader. The defense has said the payments added up to $11 million, but the government has claimed the amount was much lower. Hoeveler, who had warned pros ecutors the government would have to justify its seizures unless it re leased funds for Noriega’s defense, said he approved the deal. He added that it would allow the case to pro gress more quickly toward a planned Jan. 28 trial date. Noriega, who surrendered to U.S. troops Jan. 4, is being held in the Metropolitan Correctional Center outside of Miami on a February 1988 indictment accusing him of taking $4.6 million in bribes from Colombia’s Medellin drug cartel to turn Panama into a way station for cocaine trafficking. After Hoeveler’s ruling, Gregory Craig, an attorney from the Wash ington law firm Williams and Con nolly, addressed the court, saying he represented the new government of Panama installed after the U.S. inva sion last December. House supports bill giving workers more active role WASHINGTON (AP) — The House, by a vote of 327-93, overrode on Wednesday President Bush’s veto of legislation to give millions of gov ernment workers the right to play a more active role in politics. The House vote, well over the necessary two-thirds majority, sets up a showdown Thursday in the Senate, where a much closer out come is expected. The bill would remove many of the prohibitions in the 1939 Hatch Act, which now bars 3 million fed eral civil service and postal workers from actively participating in politi cal parties or candidates’ campaigns. “Unlike all other workers or their neighbors for that matter, federal workers cannot legally take part in the most routine political activities, such as displaying yard signs or a bumper sticker, or stuffing enve lopes,” Rep. William Ford, D-Mich., one of the bill’s chief sponsors, said. More than half of the House’s 176 Republicans, including GOP Leader Bod Michel of Illinois, bolted from the administration to support the veto override. > The Senate approved the bill by a potentially veto-overriding 67-30 vote in May. Bush vetoed the bill last Friday, saying it “would inevitably lead to re politicizing the federal work force” and “destroy its essential political neutrality.” “It ... would convert the present rule that partisan politicking by fed eral civil servants is prohibited, into a presumption that such partisan campaigning should be encour aged,” he said. The legislation would allow fed eral workers for the first time in five decades to attend political conven tions and caucuses as delegates and speak at rallies on behalf of candi dates cmdieir own time. It also would remove prohibitions that now forbid government work ers from holding offices in local, state or national political organiza tions, or even soliciting donations from co-workers for federal em ployee and postal union political ac tion committees. But it would continue to bar fed eral workers from taking leaves of absence to seek elected public office or solicit campaign funds from the public on behalf of candidates. Water-skiing stuntman gets hurt while filming television show BRISBANE, Australia (AP) — A water-skiing stuntman was seriously injured Wednesday when a stunt be ing filmed for a U.S. television pro duction went wrong. Geoff Carrington, 30, who holds several world records for water-ski ing, was to hit a ramp and soar over the speedboat towing him. The boat was then to lift off from a second ramp and fly into a specially con structed bait shop near the edge of the water. Several practice runs went well. but during the actual filming the boat slowed unexpectedly as it hit the second ramp. This threw Car rington off-course and into a pier. A medical team treated Carring ton for more than 15 minutes before he was airlifted to the Gold Coast Hospital, where he was undergoing treatment for internal injuries. The attempted stunt, which also called for the bait shop to explode with pyrotechnics when hit by the speedboat, was one of six stunts planned for a Fox Television special. SIDEWALK SALE!
