Somoza Regime Charged With Murder and Torture
The OAS charged Nicaragua’s Somoza government with widespread human rights abuses, including torture and murder by the National Guard.

Additional notes say the Carter administration won't block Israel from arming Somoza, fearing guerrilla victory without new weapons.
