Page 2, The Herald, Thursday, September 28, 1978 Prisoners released _ MANAGUA (AP) — The government uf President Anastasio Sumoza sald it released an unannounced number of political prisoners Wednesday, apparently meeting one of three demands by, opponents lo clear (he way for negotialing an end to the country’s political crisis. Alfonso Robelo Calleja, a leader of the Broad Op- position Front, an alliance of 16 parties, called Tuesday for the prisoner release, an end to media censorship and freedom of movement for all politicians, curtailed by a swnset-lo-sunrise curfew and martial law. . “We must create lhe en- vironment and atmosphere in the first stage of mediation before we can start the fundamental part of the negotiations,” he said. But there was no immediate word after the prisoner release order whether the front is ready to begin talks. Government radio an- nounced Tuesday thal a number of prisoners would be released immediately. But persuns arrested for crimes against public order, assaults against national guard garrisons, terrorism or murder are excluded, Somoza’'s office said Wed- nesday. The government has not said how many have deen arrested or identified them.
