Also yesterday, in the town of Unas, Serbs continued holding 16 Canadian peacekeepers hostage as international negotiators worked to secure their release.

The Bosnian government accused the United Na tions of signing Gorazde's death warrant and betraying the very people whom the disastrous peacekeeping mission was sent to protect. They are scared to death of the thugs in the moun tains. We are not," Prime Minister Hans Silajdzic angrily pronounced after the civilian chief of the UN Pro tection Force made clear he was not prepared to use force against the Serb gunmen poised to overrun Gorazde. The UN commander for Bosnia at one point ordered the removal of all UN military and relief workers from the besieged enclave. He then reversed course and told crews of two helicopters dispatched to Gorazde to bring out only one of two wounded Special Air Services officers.

The transported soldier was later pronounced dead. The rest of the UN military personnel, a force of 1 3, remained in Gorazde, along with an indeterminate number of civilian aid workers.

David Vieira, 42, who was known among Montreal's Portuguese as the goalie of a community soccer team, was arrested at his home in Plateau Mont Royal yesterday afternoon. The arrest came two days after the TV show Unsolved Mysteries broadcast a story about the 1 988 slaying of Alice Arruda.

She was stabbed 24 times in her New Bedford, apartment, about SO kilometres south of Boston.

"This man bore a striking resemblance to David Vieira," said Jean Ostiguy of the police homicide squad.
