The ruling Popular Action Party of Peru (APRA) has expelled Mario Villaran, its former general secretary and a Member of Parliament. Villaran favours nationalisation of the Breu Y Parinas oilfield annexed by the US and has condemned the government's agrarian reform policy and the suppression of the peasants. He is stated to have wide support among the renk and file of the party. Thus the regime in Peru has suffered a furthering narrowing cof its social base.
