Naples in the continuing
three-week hunt. for
former premier Aldo
Moroand is kednappers. .

" Police said. the villa’
contained arms, am-
munition andnleftist
literature and‘they were

connected with the Red
Brigades, Moro’s urban
guerrilla kidnappers.

Others raids were
staged in the Naples area
and the northern port city
of Genoa.

In’ Genoa, police also
questioned the im-
prisoned left-wing @Xx-
tremist Giovanni de Vita,
29, ‘reputed to - the
leadernof. a be ase

said they discovered.

_Tmree weeks after the
kidnapping, investigators
still ; report no major

breakthrough in the case.

Moro, 61, president of
the Christian Democrat
partly, was ambushed and -
kidnapped in. a. Rome
suburb in an assault. in
which feve of _ his
bodyguards were slain.

The Red Brigades,
whose . founders are .on:
- trial in Turin on sedition:
charges, have ‘claimed
responsibility for the
kidnapping and say they
are subjecting Moro to a

ople’s trial” for the
alleged anti-proletariat
policies of his party. -

In a‘letter attributed to
bir, Moro-has said he is

being held as a political
-prisoner ‘and urged an
exchange with ‘jailed
‘terrorist as the only sure
way to gain his freedom.

The: Christian
Democrats havé rejected |
the proposal. , but the door
is still believed open to a
private deal by Moro’s .
family and friends to buy
his freedom.
