...loyalists have attempted a counterrevolution, with political assassinations and minor acts of sabotage. Marxist Interior Minister Tomas Borge Martinez is determined to crush this threat, even if doing so belies the new regime's promise of a "generous revolution." Last week the decomposed body of Somoza Loyalist Pablo Emilio Salazar, the flamboyant "Commandante Bravo" of the national guard, was found in Honduras' capital of Tegucigalpa. Salazar had been tortured, and shot six times. By week's end his assassins were still unknown...
They were General Julio Gutiérrez, 65, a national guard officer now serving as military attaché at his country's embassy in Japan; Dr. Emilio Alvarez Montalván, 57, a Conservative Party politician and ophthalmologist; Jaime Chamorro Cardenal, 46, an engineer, and brother of the late anti-Somoza newspaper editor Pedro Joaquin Chamorro, whose widow is already a member of the junta; Mariano Fiallos Oyanguren, 45, rector of the University of Nicaragua; and Ernesto Fernández Holmann, 38, a banker and economist.

A Milan judge named Emilio Alessandrini identified it as that of the young professor, with whom he had dined on April 11, 1978, while Moro was still captive. Last January, Alessandrini was killed by terrorists belonging to a Red Brigades splinter group...
...losses in last year's regional elections partly reflected public reaction to atrocities by ultraleftist terrorists, who regard themselves as Italy's "true" Communists. Renewed outbreaks of terrorist violence are unlikely to help Berlinguer at the polls. Last week, for example, Milan's deputy public prosecutor, Emilio Alessandrini, was assassinated by a group linked to the Red Brigades. He was the third terrorist victim in a month and the 34th in the past 13 months. Protesting his murder, Milan's trade unions called a four-hour work standstill during Alessandrini's funeral...
