OAS Accuses Somoza Forces of Torture and Mass Killings
An OAS human rights report cites Nicaragua's National Guard with indiscriminate bombing and mass executions, including torture and killings of civilians and children. It details a two week inquiry in Matagalpa and other cities, noting brutal acts and abductions. A six member commission led by Tom J Farer questioned by Nicaraguan authorities. A cease-fire between Somoza’s forces and Sandinistas persists, with mediation efforts and potential resignation by Nov 2. American sources say the Carter administration won't block Israel arms to Somoza to avoid swift guerrilla victory.
