Over the past month different factions of the Trotskyist People's Revolutionary Army (ERP) have alternately claimed and denied responsibility for the kidnapping. According to a Reuter report, informed sources in Argentina said negotiations over Lockwood's release were delayed because he had been kidnapped from his original abduc- tors by a rival faction of the ERP. (For background on the Lockwood kidnapping, see the 13 June issue, page; 6, and the 20 June issue, page 6. For background on the ERP, see the 30 May issue, page 8.) (UNCLASSTFIED) Bandera Roja Leader Captured by Venezuelan Authorities The leader of the urban guerrilla group Bandera Roja. (BR), Carlos Betancourt, and a fellow member were captured by Venezuelan security agents in Caracas on 29 July.., Two BR print shops were also uncovered. In the opinion of a senior security official, the arrests mean extinction for'the BR. (See 20 June issue, page $, for previous reporting on the Bandera Roja.)
