ALLEGATION OF SPYING
(N.Z.PJL.-Reuter —Copyright) CAIRO, June 10. The Egyptian Middle East News Agency has reported that the brother of Sirhan Bishara Sirhan, who is accused of killing Senator Robert Kennedy, was arrested several months ago in Iraq on charges of spying for Israel. The agency quoted “unofficial informed sources” in Baghdad as saying that when Soliman Bishara Sirhan was arrested in Iraq, near the Jordanian border, he was carrying maps of Iraqi military air bases.
The agency said Soliman Sirhan, a civil engineer, was handed over to the Jordanian authorities. It added that Sirhan was linked with a spy ring uncovered by Jordan some time ago.
