Equatorial Guinea

A community portal about Equatorial Guinea with blogs, videos, and photos. According to Wikipedia.org: Equatorial Guinea, officially the Republic of Equatorial Guinea, is a country in West Middle Africa, one of the smallest in continental Africa. It is bordered by Cameroon on the north, Gabon on the south and east, and the Gulf of Guinea on the west, where the islands of São Tome and Príncipe lie to its southwest. Formerly the Spanish colony of Spanish Guinea, the country's territory includes a number of islands, including the sizable island of Bioko where the capital, Malabo, is located. Its post-independence name is suggestive of its location near both the equator and the Gulf of Guinea. It is the only country in mainland Africa where Spanish is an official language, excluding the Spanish enclaves of Ceuta and Melilla, and the Sahrawi Arab Democratic Republic.

Russian gang has been given the job of kidnapping Mark Thatcher and taking him to Equatorial Guinea There are more claims in the press today about the situation of Sir Mark Thatcher who got married in a quiet ceremony on Gibraltar last week.
The Gibraltar Chronicle met him in the Rock Hotel yesterday and he told the paper that he would be on the Rock for a few days. He dismissed the suggestion, made in some parts of the Spanish media, that Sir Mark had returned to rock from Spain as he is wanted by the authorities in Equatorial Guinea, the former Spanish colony, after being implicated in the alleged funding of a coup attempt there in 2004. There is no extradition treaty in place between the UK and Gibraltar and the African country.
However Margaret Thatcher’s son denied that was his reason for remaining in Gibraltar, despite some reports of him owning property in Sotogrande, or renting in Marbella, over the border in Spain.Today brings new reports from the specialist United States newsletter, G2 Bulletin, have claimed that British agents based on the Costa del Sol have intercepted phone calls made between members of the Equatorial Guinea regime and a Russian gang called the Rising Sun. The reports say that the gang is involved in shipping cocaine into Europe, via Spain and West Africa.
The Gibraltar Chronicle says there is little evidence to indicate that Sir Mark is concerned about any possible kidnap plat which has been alleged.
