Five crates of wreckage sent to Western officials
The Soviet Union handed over 83 items from the downed South Korean jet to Western officials at Nevelsk on Sakhalin Island. No personal effects or human remains were returned. The gesture was described by one participant as “a lot of junk.” In Peru, officials seek a durable peace with insurgents and a gesture of wisdom from Sendero Luminoso. In Rome, a Bulgarian suspect in Pope John Paul II’s attempted assassination is ordered under house arrest. In Manila, officials disclosed new evidence suggesting military knowledge of Benigno Aquino’s arrival and possible complicity in his assassination.
