WARSAW, Poland ? Leading
figures in the outlawed Solidarity labor
movement say the kidnapping of a
pro-Solidarity priest, the Rev. Jerzy
Popicluszko, may be linked to an antiunion
"terrorist group" operating in
northern Poland.
Janus/ Onyszkiewiez, former national
spokesman for the union, said
the underground press had
documented similar abductions in the
Torun area, about 125 miles northwest
of Warsaw.

speaking to reporters after attending a

He said the Popieluszko kidnapping
was a "completely new thing, deeply
shocking, because priest Popieluszko

He was kidnapped Friday night on a
highway near Torun by a group of
men, one of whom was wearing a
police uniform. His disappearance has
brought expressions of concern from
the Roman Catholic Church, which
said the kidnapping appeared to be
