Telephone tap leads to the arrest in Spain of Poland's most wanted man
Poland's most wanted man, Andrzej Zielinski, was arrested yesterday morning
in Valencia by officers of the Polish Central Intelligence Office (CBS).
Zielinski, alias "Slowik", and other leaders of the Pruszkow gang have been
sought by police ever since a warrant was issued for their arrest over
eighteen months ago. The police traced the gangster to a house in the
Valencia suburbs, after eavesdropping on his telephone conversations. Three
other Poles were arrested along with Zielinski, two of them known gang
members. The Polish Justice Ministry has applied for Zielinski's
extradition. (Rzeczpospolita, p. A1; Gazeta Wyborcza, p. 1) P.W.
