The Michigan Daily - Wednesday, November 12, 1986 - Page 3 Army resumes inquiry into alleged abuses By LESLIE ERINGAARD The Army has reopened an investigation into charges that U.S. special agents in South Korea regularly abused drugs and alcohol, got into fistfights, and engaged in sexual misconduct with South Korean 'women. Army investigators yesterday interviewed former Special Agent Joseph Ditzhazy at the Eloy, Ariz. police department. Ditzhazy has charged counterintelligence agents in South Korea with widespread abuses which he said could jeopardize national security by leaving agents open to blackmail. DITZHAZY, who now works for the Corrections Department of the state of Arizona, said that he was alternately ignored and harassed when he tried to take his complaints up the chain of command in South Korea. Ditzhazy also alleged that Lt. Col. Charles Narburgh, head of the University of Michigan's ROTC 'I think it just goes to show that the Army is willing to go to whatever lengths it takes to investigate alleged injustices.' -Lt. Col. Charles Narburgh, head of 'U' ROTC program, attempted to blacklist Ditzhazy from security positions in the CIA, the FBI, and the Secret Service upon his return to the United States with a Hardship Discharge in May. Narburgh recently completed a two-year post as head of the 524th Military Intelligence Battalion in South Korea. THE ARMY investigation was reopened after Ditzhazy put out several press releases and wrote to key members of the Senate Select Intelligence and Armed Services. He also sent detailed information to Vice President Bush and Secretary of Defense Caspar Weinberger. "I think they (personnel in the Army's Intelligence and Security Command) are concerned about having to do this investigation," Ditzhazy said. "I think they hoped it would just go away." Narburgh said yesterday that the expanded investigation does not imply that any of Ditzhazy's charges are valid. "I think it just goes to show that the Army is willing to go to whatever lengths it takes to investigate alleged injustices," he said. "I think one of the reasons that he is being interviewed formally is to bring to a conclusion his continuing allegations." "FEW OF his allegations have any substance," Narburgh continued. "(The media) is feeding his ego by even giving him the press space." Starting at 9:30 a.m. yesterday, Ditzhazy was questioned at length by investigators for the Army's Intelligence and Security Command (INSCOM). During the sworn tape testimony, Ditzhazy furnished investigators with a list of 12 sources who were not contacted in the original Army investigation, which was completed in September. Ditzhazy said he did not include them on his source list when he filed his complaint in order to protect the sources who were still in Korea at the time. Ditzhazy said he planned to furnish the sources when investigators came to him for questioning, which. they did not do before releasing a final assessment in September. The analysis concluded that there was no evidence of widespread abuse by U.S. special forces in. South Korea. Ditzhazy is considering suing the Army for $400,000 to compensate for personal suffering and his lost military career. He said he also hopes to see a new set of standards for special agents, and a "streamlining". of the process of reporting agent abuses. Delegates say Juigalpa needs supplies By KERY MURAKAMI Members of Ann Arbor's 17-person delegation to Nicaragua yesterday said a city task force could help alleviate shortages in medical and school supplies in Ann Arbor's sister city. The delegates, sent to establish 'What I saw was a very small, poor country of three million It's like the people. United States of America at- tacking Detroit.' -Joyce Chesbrough, Ann Arbor delegate to Nicaragua ;links with Juigalpa, Nicaragua, :returned Monday night from a :10-day fact-finding tour of the country, including three days in the sister city. The Ann Arbor Central America Sister City Task Force is expected to begin a bucket drive next weekend to raise money for _ such supplies as antibiotics for a Jigalpan hospitals and pencils and books for Juigalpan schools. THE TASK force, as well as the delegation, was set up as part of a city resolution passed in 1985, which also authorized a letter to the U.S government protesting its policies in Central America. The delegates Monday night blasted U.S aid to Nicaragua's Contra rebels, calling it a "morally bankrupt campaign of brutality against the Nicaraguan people." Because resources are diverted to fight the Contras, the delegates said U.S. support of the rebels exacerbate Nicaragua's economic and health problems. A State Department official refused to comment on the delegates' comments and sending aid to Nicaragua. MANY OF the delegates were health or education experts, and one priority of the trip was to find areas where Ann Arbor could offer assistance. For example,James Eckroad, a local health and sanitation analyst, toured Juigalpa's water and sanitation facilities. According to Eckroad, Juigalpa has no sewage system, forcing Juigalpans to use either outhouses or septic tanks. In addition, he said, the city has an insufficent and "questionable" supply of drinking water. Eckroad said Ann Arbor could help build a separate water system for Juigalpa's hospital. The hospital, he said, accounts for 12 percent of the city's water consumption. Officials of Hague, Juigalpa's sister city in the Netherlands, have pledged $80,000 and technical help in upgrading the city's water supply. Eckroad didn't know how much building a water system for the hospital would cost.
