    See, e.g., United States v. Orozco-Prada, 732 F.2d 1076, 1087-1088 (2d Cir. 1984) (upholding a conviction under 21 U.S.C. §§ 841(a)(1) and 846 where a vessel loaded with marijuana intended for distribution in the United States was intercepted in Colombian territorial waters). Likewise, 21 U.S.C. §§ 952 and 963, which prohibit importing and conspiring to import a controlled substance into the United States, contain no express extraterritoriality provision, but also apply to conduct outside the United States. See, e.g., United States v. Londono-Villa, 930 F.2d 994 999- 1000 (2d Cir. 1991) (recognizing Section 952’s extraterritorial reach and interpreting the provision to require that the defendant knew or intended that the narcotics would be imported into the United States); Chua Han Mow v. United States, 730 F.2d 1308, 1311-12 (9th Cir. 1984) (applying Title 21, United States Code, Sections 846 and 963 to conduct by a Malaysian citizen in Malaysia).
