Madonna of Mexico goes on the run
Article Abstract:
Mexican pop star Gloria Trevi, who is sought by police for questioning over allegations that she lured under-age girls into sex for sale, has fled to Brazil with her manager, Sergio Andrade, who is also accused of corrupting minors. Brazil has no extradition treaty with Mexico. The allegations are causing great concern among Trevi's many loyal fans, who once believed that she could not be affected by the excesses of the pop music scene.

Remedies developed by Cuban doctors include PPG-5, an alternative to the impotence drug Viagra derived from the same type of sugar stalks.
