WORLD, Page 41World NotesMEXICOThe Plot Thickens
Is there no end to the dark doings of Jose Antonio Zorrilla
Perez? Last month the former head of the powerful Federal Security
Directorate was arrested in Mexico as a suspect in the 1984
assassination of journalist Manuel Buendia. Now a U.S. grand jury
is investigating allegations that Zorrilla was also involved in the
death of U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration agent Enrique
Camarena Salazar in 1985. According to DEA informants, Zorrilla
knew in advance of Camarena's kidnaping. One source added that
Camarena's interrogator was in direct contact with Zorrilla. If
proved, the allegations would support the theory that Camarena's
murder was approved at the highest levels of the government.
