British Ambassador Abducted In Uruguay by Tupamaro Rebels
Uruguayan government says it will not negotiate with the terrorists who seized Geoffrey Jackson in Montevideo, while pledging to do all to secure his safe release. The militants used a staged ambush with six stolen cars, overpowering Jackson’s guards and abducting the diplomat as his limo was intercepted. Police launched roadblocks and a broad city search, with diplomats meeting and a reward offered for information. The incident adds to a string of kidnappings by the Tupamaros, who hold several hostages including a Brazilian consul and an American advisor.
