an individual extortionist, according to

West German Consul Kidnapped in Irelandihly_Involved in
Arms Smuggling
Thomas Niedermayer, honorary West German consul and man-
ager of the Grundig Electronics Company in North Ireland who
was kidnapped by unknown persons on 28 December 1973 (see the
3 January 1974 issue, page A-3), allegedly was the victim of
a militant Irish Protestant underground group and is no longer
alive, according to an article in the 4 February issue of the
West German weekly magazine Der Spiegel.
According to the article, a Protestant underground group
in Belfast had planned to smuggle weapons into Ireland by uti-
lizing the empty space of a container in which 20 tons of steel
were being shipped on 4 January from West Germany to the Grun-
dig plant in Belfast. Niedermayer allegedly had been amorously
involved with the wife of the underground leader responsible
for the plan. The article leaves open the question of Nieder-
mayer's complicity in the smuggling plot but cites a Protestant
loyalist politician in Belfast to the effect that Niedermayer
is definitely no longer alive. (UNCLASSIFIED)
Bank of London Employee Set Free in Argentina
Enrique Nyborg Anderson (originally reported as Ernesto
Niborg Andersen), a regional manager of the Bank of London in
Argentina who was kidnapped on 11 November, was set free last
week for an estimated $1,145,000 ransom. Anderson's abductors
remain unidentified. (For background see the 28 November is-
sue, page 13.) (UNCLASSIFIED)

Hijacking to Hanoi foiled.
A South Vietnamese youth, Nguyen Cuu Viet,
attempted to hijack to Hanoi an Air Viet-
nam airliner en route from Saigon to Da-
nang. When his attempt was foiled by the
American copilot, he pulled the pin on a
hand grenade he was carrying, killing him-
self and three passengers. Several other
passengers were injured in the explosion,
and the four-engined DC-4 plane was bad-
ly damaged. Present evidence indicates
Viet was acting alone and no motivation
for his attempt has been established.

Bombs at Dow chemical plant.
Terrorists placed five bombs in the Dow
chemical plant at Lavrion, about 40 miles
from Athens. Of the five bombs, four ex-
ploded, causing material damage, accord-
ing to an official Greek announcement.
The fifth bomb exploded while two Greek
demolition experts were attempting to de-
fuse it both were killed. A Greek under-
ground organization called the People's
Resistance Organized Army claimed respon-
sibility for the bombings, according to
press reports. (UNCLASSIFIED)
