Airline employees are charged
WASHINGTON (AP) — The Department
of Justice is preparing indictments against
about 50 employees of Eastern Airlines believ
ed to be smuggling cocaine from South
America, federal law enforcement sources said
Wednesday.
The sources, who spoke on condition on
anonymity, said the 50 employees are "almost
exclusively baggage handlers" in Miami. The
handlers are said to be the key to a narcotics
pipeline bringing cocaine into the United
States from Bogota, Colombia, by way of
Miami, where the carrier is based.
The probe has been going on at least two
months, the sources said, and it may continue
for another two months,
"We think there is a small cadre of
handlers who are holding out baggage" to cir
cumvent a narcotics net set up by IJ.S.
Customs officials, one of the law enforcement
sources said.
The sources said that customs officials
employed sniffer dogs to detect drugs. The
baggage handlers involved in the drug
shipments have, for example, kept baggage
containing cocaine away from the conveyer
belts at the Miami airport until after sniffer
dogs are taken away, the sources said.
One source said that in some cases, the
handlers simply keep the bags loaded with
narcotics on the planes until customs checks
are completed.
Tuesday, the head of the Drug Enforce
ment Administration, John Lawn, said in
California that the indictments wore being
prepared, but did not name the airline.
”We have cooperated with the leadership
of that airline,” said Lawn, adding that the in
dictments would come in the “next several
weeks." •• •• ; ‘. '
He said employees of the airline were in

Rajneeshees face declining ihembership
PORTLAND (AP) — The Ra- .
jneeshee movement in Europe is
foundering in the wake of the
breakup of the sect’s leadership
in Oregon, according to a
published report.
The once-flourishing Kota Ra
jneesh Centre in Zurich,
Switzerland, declared
bankruptcy about two weeks
ago and closed, The Oregonian
newspaper reported in its
Wednesday editions.
The newspaper quoted un
named Swiss sources as saying
the facility had as many as 500
members in 1983 but now only
30 remain, and they have
dispersed and are living in
small groups in the city.
The Oregonian said the once
strong Amsterdam commune of
Indian guru Bhagwan Shrae Ra
jneesh had dwindled to perhaps
a few hundred active members',
down from as many as 4,p(M)
just two years ago.. •/ . ..
"There are probably another
200 Rajneeshees here who don't
live in the commune, but at the.
most there are just 4Q0 or 500 °
now," said a former member
who quit the sect in September.
In West Germany, the Ra
jneeshees' traditional European
stronghold, one Rajneeshee
spokesman said the followers of
Indian guru Bhagwan Shree Ra
jneesh are dispersing to form
their own communities,

changing,” said S w a rn i

said in an interview from

know, they are spreading."
Kamateertha said the Kota
bankruptcy in Zurich was more
the result of bad management
by former Rajneeshee officials
than to a decline in interest in
the movement.
He said the restaurant loca
