Poisoned Whiskey Leads to Arrest of Saboteurs
JERUSALEM (JTA)—A bottle of
poisoned whiskey led to the arrest
of a gang of 30 saboteurs in the
Ramallah and Jerusalem regions,
Israeli security sources disclosed.
The gang includes members of
El Fatah and the Popular Front
for the Liberation of Palestine.
Their apprehension yielded three
caches of machineguns, hand
grenades and high explosives. The
saboteurs are suspected of mur-
dering Taisir Luzia, a prominent
Jerusalem Arab who was poisoned.
They are also accused of throwing
grenades at the Herod Gate in old
Jerusalem and planting explosives
in the license bureau and the
branch office of the Israel Discount
Bank in Ramallah.
According to security sources,
the round-up of the gang came
about accidentally when an official
of the West Bank military govern-
ment was the luncheon guest of a
local Arab dignitary. The guest
