Heroingate

Nadyr Mamyrov, Vice President of Manas airport in Kyrgyzstan, has published a letter stating that he followed orders from Zanybek Bakiev concerning the Omurbek Tekebaev heroin scandal. Mamyrov was the figure scene briefly taking Tekebaev's suitcase in a video, while Bakiev is with the National Security Service and the younger brother of Kyrgyz President Kurmanbek Bakiev. The Kyrgyz Parliament summoned President Bakiev to answer questions, and is demanding the resignation of other Bakiev brothers in government posts.

UPDATE: Nathan Hamm has the Tekebaev airport video.
