NEW: Remember when around 400 kilos of virtually uncut cocaine were found at the Russian embassy in Argentina? The official story of how this happened stinks. We obtained ALL the Russian and Argentinian investigative case files. They point to a coverup: https://www.thedailybeast.com/was-andrei-kovalchuk-and-the-russian-embassy-in-argentina-at-the-center-of-a-russian-spy-cocaine-ring?ref=home?ref=home

We've obtained access to FSB and Russian Interior Ministry case files, including wiretaps of both the Russian and Argentine suspects in this massive drug-running operation. What Moscow and Buenos Aires allege simply doesn't add up.

One Argentinian intelligence official told us the main defendant, Andrei Kovalchuk, was likely a Russian intelligence official. An FSB defector from Directorate K (the same unit tasked with investigating this case) said this is either a drug sting operation gone sideways or...

A narco-trafficking ring orchestrated by Russian intelligence to procure money for 'black operations.'

In collaboration with @dossier_center, we've found enormous holes and discrepancies in both the Russian and Argentinian investigations, including evidence which complicates the prosecution of two of the alleged conspirators in this case.

Several people still employed by the Russian Foreign Ministry were implicated in helping Kovalchuk smuggle wares across state borders. One of them committed "suicide" in Moscow. The others haven't been investigated, reprimanded, suspended or fired from their jobs.

Our exposé is based on "hundreds of hours of telephone wiretap recordings, reams of witness and suspect interrogation transcripts, and nearly 10,000 pages of police and intelligence case files."

The source who leaked the Argentinian case files did so because they believed their government wasn’t behaving professionally and they wanted independent media to conduct its own investigation. Ponder that.
