Title Policia requisa buzon de explosivos en El Cua-Bocay
The National Police confiscated an arsenal of highly explosive materials in the mountainous area of Ayapal. Included were twelve M-79 projectiles. The arsenal belonged to a former member of the Nicaraguan Resistance movement. The local community states that there is another arsenal in the area. The police want to establish a more stringent control of the firearms in the area and develop a program to urge the residents to turn in their shotguns, military weapons and firearms for hunting rifles.
