Alex Polier -- The Kenya connection

Free Republic | 14th Feb 2004 | Free Republic

For those of you interested in the Alex Polier Kenya connection here is a summary (repeating some of the stuff I wrote yesterday and adding waht little new info there is):

Alex Polier was, as of 5pm Kenya time, hiding out in Nairobi. She and her fiance, Yaron (sp) Schwartzman were staying at the home of his parents Joseph and Hannah. The London Evening Standard reported last night that she was already in the UK. They were wrong, although there is a possibility she may have flown later on last night -- but I think it is more likely she was still here.

Alex and Yaron were moved from the family's palacial home in the upmarket Nairobi suburb of Lavington late last night to avoid the press. They could be anywhere in Kenya -- at the coast or on Safari.

Yaron is believed to work in Nairobi at a company called Film Struck Studios or possible Film Studios. The company is owned by daddy. He is believed to move in a circle of friends known as the "cokehead set". Now there is more than one cokehead set in Kenya, which attracts old wealth, new wealth, British Aristocracy and some of the international gliterrati.

Daddy is the chairman of an engineering company called H Young, which is owned by former cabinet minister Nicholas Biwott. Biwott is a nasty piece of work. Former President Daniel arap Moi's right hand man, a Scotland Yard enquiry named him the prime suspect in the 1990 murder of Foreign Minister Robert Ouko. He plundered the Kenyan treasury and is known here as "the Godfather", "Mr 15 percent" (the cuts he took when awarding tenders to multinational companies) or "The Total Man" (he owns Total Kenya). Daddy is also business partner of Naushad Merali, another Moi frontman, a multimillionaire and probably Kenya's richest Asian.

This would suggest our man Yaron mixes with the 20 and 30-somethings who are the children or spouses of Kenya's leading criminals. The senior members of this set are Biwott's Israeli wife Rita and his son in law Charles Field-Marshall, a controversial Kenya-based Canadian businessman.

Even close friends of Yaron say they know nothing of the relationship with Kerry -- mainly because no-one really knows Alex.

The British press are finding it difficult to track her down -- they are attempting to "doorstep" her. This is a tricky process in nairobi where houses sit on 5-acre plots, cannot be seen from the road, are protected by big black gates, alarms, electric fences, a host of security guards and their dogs.

It has not helped that the British press were also watching the wrong house.

Hope this is useful to someone out there.

I just checked the web site for the DC library and they have copies of the Congressional Staff Directory at about ten of the branches.

I wonder about any improprities in posting said image in light of the copyright warning... what say ye ?

You can get it for your own use, but don't post it on FR. Enough of those have been deleted already.

[getmeouttaPalmBeachCounty_FL]

I'm just catching up today. What are y'all looking for?

[Julliardsux]

get the congressional staff directory while you are there, if they have it

[thesummerwind]

Ailes got mad over Drudge bringing his style of reporting to the airwaves.

Ailes got mad because Drudge showed this picture on the air:

Ailes fired him on the spot.

PS: None of these GOPers who claim to be pro-life really are pro-life; they just tell you that to get elected.

Kerry is a complete moron for denying this. The very essence of arrogance and megalomania. Even Klintoon was smart enough to realize he had to admit cheating on his wife.

But Gary Hart wasn't.

You never know with these politicians.
