The US Embassy in Montevideo informs the State Department in Washington about five bodies with bullet wounds found at a roadside near Montevideo. The deceased are believed to be members of the Uruguayan movement, Tupamaros, but they are dressed in Argentine-made clothing which raises questions concerning the potential involvement of the Argentine military regime.
