MAPUTO, Mozambique (PANA) - The man who murdered Swedish Prime Minister Olof Palme in February 1986 may be living in the central Mozambican city of Beira, according to the Swedish newspaper 'Aftonbladet'.

In its weekend edition, 'Aftonbladet' said that the South African agent suspected of assassinating Palme, Antony White, is based in Beira, and working at a sawmill that serves as a cover for various criminal activities, including drug running.

The paper says that White was working for the notorious South African spy Craig Williamson. He was named last week as heading the secret police 'Operation Longreach' which targeted Palme for assassination.

Williamson is currently in Angola working in the diamond trade. He told 'Aftonbladet' that White had gone to Beira, but was unsure whether he was still there.

Williamson's role in planning the Palme murder was indicated last week by Col. Eugene de Kock, former head of the apartheid police's Vlakplaas death squad.

De Kock claimed that the apartheid regime had spent at least 70,000 rands (about 23,000 U.S. dollars at the exchange rate of the time) in arranging Palme's murder.

De Kock's predecessor at Vlakplaas, Dirk Coetzee, the man who blew the whistle on aparthied death squads, and defected to the African National Congress, named White as the assassin on Saturday.

He believed, however, that White had taken refuge on a Greek island or in Cyprus, rather than in Mozambique.

White was once a member of the Selous Scouts, one of the most feared and hated units in the Rhodesian army that waged war against the people of Zimbabwe and the neighbouring states in the 1970s.
