World Notes
SPAIN
Bagged in Bayonne
</hdr><body>
<p> His face obscured by a helmet, a dark figure climbed off his
motorcycle and strode toward a house in a village outside
Bayonne in southwest France. Before he reached the door,
gunfire erupted, and within minutes French authorities captured
the notorious leader of the Basque hard-liners, Jose Antonio
Urrutikoetxea (alias: Josu Ternera), 38. The arrest last week of
the ETA (Basque Homeland and Liberty) terrorist was hailed as
a major breakthrough in a three-year Franco-Spanish offensive
against Basque extremists fighting for independence in Spain.
</p>
<p> Josu Ternera is thought to have been responsible for the
assassination of the Spanish Prime Minister in 1973. Police
believe the arrests will seriously curtail the terrorist
activities of ETA.
