ARRESTS IN SHOOTING OF RUSSIAN DIPLOMAT.

Publication: Monitor Volume: 2 Issue: 93

Guatemalan police reported yesterday that they had captured two suspects in the May 1 shooting of Russian diplomat Yuri Trushkin. (See Monitor, May 6) The evidence implicating the suspects, they said, suggested that the shooting of Trushkin was a common rather than a political crime. Trushkin, in a coma, was moved May 11 to what was described as a specialized medical facility in Havana. (Itar-Tass, May 12; Reuter, May 13)
