Canadian sought

NZPA-Reuter Ottawa Canadian police are investigating an alleged connection between a Canadian and kidnapped United States hostages in Lebanon which may result in criminal charges, said the Minister of Justice, Ray Hnatyshyn, yesterday.

The case is believed to involve Peter Kilburn, a librarian at the American University in Beirut who was abducted in December, 1984 and killed after the United States bombing of Libya last April.

The “New York Times” reported this week that the Reagan Administration put together in early 1986 a complex plan to rescue an American hostage and also effect the arrest of a Canadian who was serving as the kidnappers’ representative.
