Co-plaintiff hopes case
gets increased scrutiny
By Brian Gallagher

Martha Money, co plaintiff in a lawsuit over the IJ.S. gov
ernment's role in the Iran-Contra affair, said Wednesday that
Congress should re-open its investigation of the covert opera
tion
‘Some of the most sinister crimes by people in the gov
ernment were oftentimes under the guise of national secu
rity." she said
"We would like Congress to take a fresh look at some of
these c rimes, particularly the I-a Ponca bombing." said Hon
ey. an award winning journalist, author and co-plaintiff in the
Christie Institute lawsuit, in a press conference at the Council
for Human Rights in I«atin America.
Honey and the Christie Institute brought a civil suit
against 20 defendants in May of IttHli, charging them with
criminal conspiracy and other terrorist activities. These overt
acts, taken in direct violation of the Neutrality Act. were con
ducted t»y individuals in. or working for the U S govern
merit, they allege
Honey's involvement started in 1984 when her husband.
AIM .' TV cameraman Tony Avirgan. covered a press confer
ence at l-a Penca. Nicaragua in which eight people were
killed and 28 others, including Avirgan. were wounded when
a bomb exploded in the shack that was to l>e used for the con
ference.
The bomb. Honey said, was meant for Eden Pastora. a
Nicaraguan rebel leader. He survived but others were not so
fortunate.
Honey said much of the investigation to find out who had
done the bombing initially was done at her expense. In 1980,
Honey and Avirgan teamed up with the Christie Institute, a
Washington-based public interest law firm.
Honey said the lawsuit was dismissed last June for what
she called "largely political" reasons, but added. "We hope
to have the r ase accepted before the appeals court in Atlanta,
Georgia."
