Nicaragua seeks stash of missiles (The Washington Times, Jan. 30, 2005) The State Department said yesterday it has asked Nicaragua to investigate whether its military is hiding stashes of SA-7 missiles capable of downing commercial airliners. The Nicaraguan government later announced it was conducting a "thorough investigation." The statements came the same day The Washington Times reported that Nicaraguan police seized one of the Soviet-made missiles from black marketeers during a U.S.-assisted sting operation in Managua, Nicaragua.
