Effective Arrest
(N.Z.P.A. Reuter—Copyright) HUE, June 20.

A squad of armed combat police in camouflaged uniforms moved through the hospital gate at 8 a.m. today and surrounded the building in which the 44-year-old monk has been living for more than a week.
Tri Quang was reported to be very weak today. He has lost 241 b after 12 days without solid food.
