Secretary of State Haig met El Salvador vice president Jaime Abdul Gutierrez amid disclosures of a Nicaraguan captured in El Salvador who reportedly escaped custody and hid in the Mexican Embassy. Salvadoran defense officials named a Nicaraguan, Ligidamis Anazzis Gutierrez, as having entered from Nicaragua and escaped with guerrilla help. The episode marks a second setback this week for U.S. moves to discredit Nicaragua's government.
