Rebels Fool CIA Gringos in Nicaragua FDN Rift
Honduran claims link Nicaraguan rebels to dissident killings raise questions about timing of Col. Ricardo Lau's expulsion from the FDN. U S officials say Lau may have remained with the group past January 1983, hinting at deception to mislead the CIA. The dispute exposes limits of CIA control over FDN internal moves. Edgar Chamorro comments in AP interview.

Lau remains in FDN role amid rebel counterintelligence move
Chamorro says Lau was not ousted but reassigned from FDN intelligence to head a broader counterintelligence unit with 20 to 40 operatives. He reportedly retains influence while some CIA personnel are aware of his continued presence, despite Washington officials denying purges. Lau’s possible location is unknown as Honduran probes into killings and disappearances continue.

Mount Vernon Air Service Faces Subsidy Cut
Illinois service would feel cuts as Air Kentucky’s operations at Mount Vernon rely on a subsidy since July after Air Illinois halted service. Airport Manager Max Firebaugh said losing the subsidy could alter flight plans. Previous unsubsidized service efforts failed due to FAA inaction and a Civil Aeronautics Board suit against Britt Airways over O’Hare slots.
