INTERNATIONAL BRIEF'S
Johannesburg, S.A.
Defendant says Mandela lied
A co-defendant in Winnie Mandela's kidnap and assault trial said that the activist viciously beat four young men and that he lied in court to protect her, a newspaper said yesterday.
The Sunday Times of Johannesburg quoted John Morgan as saying Mandela's alibi was a farce, and she was in her Soweto home in December 1988, when the assaults took place.
One of the four victims later died, and Mandela, the wife of African National President Nelson Mandela, ordered Morgan to remove the person from the house. Morgan told the newspaper.
Vatican City
The claims contradict statements Morgan made last year during his and Mandela's kidnap and assault trial.
Pope will visit Denver in 1993
Pope John Paul II indicated yesterday that he would press the Roman Catholic Church's stand against abortion with young people at next year's international youth rally in Denver.
The August 1993 trip will be the pope's first U.S. visit in six years, and it appeared to be planned to reach out to Hispanics, who are expected to make up half of the U.S. Catholic Church in the 21st century.
Speaking in English, the pope, in bright red robes, told the crowd that the rally's theme was the New Testament passage, "I came that they may have life, and have it abundantly."
While John Paul did not describe the subjects he would address, the theme indicated he would be taking his campaign against abortion and artificial birth control to the United States.
Zafferana Etna, Sicily
Lava stream threatens village
A stream of smoking, black lava from Mount Etna that has been crawling forward for months spilled over a second hearn barrier yesterday and approached Zafferana Etna officials said.
The lava from Europe's most active volcano rolled to within 60 feet of a house at the edge of the town of 7,000 people, officials said.
The residents, helped by Italian soldiers,
marked houses of house-girls go on the streets.
A representative for the Interior Ministry said the agency was preparing to help others leave their homes if the lava continued to descend down the mountain.
The black, crusty-looking lava mass began flowing in mid-December but has picked up speed recently and now is moving 30 to 50 feet per hour.

Libya announces plan to cut international ties
TRIPOLL, Libya — Libya announced yesterday that it would sever all contact with the outside world for the 24 hours before U.N. sanctions take effect in a confrontation over the bombing of Pan Am Flight
The Associated Press
Arab leaders, meanwhile, continued efforts to关 off the sanctions, which would include emba- arring Iran.
The U.N. Security Council has given Libya until Wednesday to surrender two alleged intelligence agents. The men are charged in the bombing of a New York-bound Pan Am Boeing 747 in 1988 over Lockerbie, Scotland, that killed 270 people.
The official JANA newsagency distributed a statement that Libya would cut all international travel and communication links tomorrow as a sign of the attack on a U.S. air strike that killed 411 Libyans six years ago.
The Security Council is demanding that Libya surrender the two suspects for trial in the United States or Britain and produce proof it has renounced all forms of terrorism.
Libya only has agreed to turn over the suspects to a neutral country, an offer rejected by the West. Gad-
hafi denies that the men or his government had any role in the bombing.
Between 12:01 and midnight, all air, land and sea traffic of Libyan and foreign companies will be interrupted. Postal service, telephone lines and cables may be cut, but no fuel will be sold, the statement said.
It barred Libyan nationals anywhere in the world from traveling to the United States and Britain plainly.
Finally, all Libyanys were ordered to wear black or pin on a black sign indicating mourning.
Libya's foreign minister, Ibrahim al-Bishari, met Saturday with U.N. Secretary-General Boutros Boutros-Ghali in Geneva and said he offered propositions to leading the standoff. He refused to provide any details.
JANA said President Hosni Mubarak of Egypt arrived in Tripoli yesterday for a meeting with Gadhafi.
Mubarak, a close ally of the West, has been trying to defuse the crisis through mediation. But Egyptian officials have indicated many times that there was little Egypt could do unless Libya surrendered the suspects.
Iran's government predicts vote for reform in elections
The Associated Press
TEHRAN, Iran — The government predicted yesterday that backers of President Hashemi Rafsanjani would win parliamentary elections by a wide margin, bolstering Rafsanjani's drive to liberalize the economy and mend ties with the West.
The early results from Friday's selection indicated a sharp setback for the more radical followers of the late Ayatolah Ruhollah Khomeini, who have dominated the 270 seat Mailis, Iran's parliament.
Iran's official news media said that 55 of the 123 candidates who won enough votes to capture a seat outright were members of the Society of Combatant Clergym, whose leader is Rafsanjani.
The other 68 decided races were in remote areas, and the affiliation of the winners was not immediately clear.
About 13.5 million votes had been counted in 189 districts as of yesterday. Final results from all 196 districts are expected tomorrow, the Islamic Republic News Agency said. But the fact that the government-run news agency predicted victory early indicated confidence in the success of measures
Rafsanjani took before the vote to eliminate as many radical critics as possible.
A week before the election, the Council of Guardians, a 12-man review panel of religious and civilian legal experts, eliminated one-third of the 3,000 candidates.
With 10 percent of the potential 3 million votes in the key Tehran area counted, all but one of the top 30 vote-winners were members of Rafsanjani's society. His most rabid opponents in Parliament, Mehdi Karrubi, the speaker, and Ali Akbar Mohtashemi, a former interior minister, were far down the list of candidates for run-off election.
Rafsanjani's supporters, pushing pragmatic government measures, repeatedly have clashed in the previous Parliament with radicals intent on empha-
sizing their fervor at home and Islamic revolution abroad.
The radicals also wanted extensive state ownership of business, while the Rafsanjani's supporters argued for a more open economy to deal with Iran's high inflation and unemployment and the lack of reconstruction since the 1980-88 war with Iraq.
