Intro: |

|
An offshore financier who boasted of managing $1 billion in assets
was expelled from Nicaragua and confronted with an indictment
Wednesday charging him in a five-year money-laundering plot.
Marc Harris has been a target of U.S. investigators for years and
has had operations in Panama and Montserrat shuttered by government
action. |

Excerpt: |
British journalist David
Marchant, who operates the Internet newsletter
Offshore Alert, has devoted himself
to Harris exposes.
Harris sued Marchant in 1998 and lost when the court found
"persuasive support for the truth" of allegations that Harris was
running a Ponzi scheme that misused clients' funds, issued worthless
shares and went broke. |
