But Krim, the chief Ben Khed- dist negotiator, made it clear that the reconciliation talks had not broken down. He spoke to reporters after a brief morning session with for- mer vice-premier Mohammed Khider, Ben Bella's emissary, after his arrival from his Kaby- lie bastion of Tizi Ouzou. "I will sta," in Algiers until Boudiaf is released," Krim said, adding that he expects to have further talks with Khider. Khider told reporters he ex- 'pects Ben Bella's seven man, unilaterally - appointed political bureau to be instal'ed on Thurs+ lay. Krim's insistence that Boudi- af's presence was "indispensae be" came in the face of rum- ors current here that Boudiaf, captured as he vis't.d his fame ily in M'Sila, 120 miles south- east of Algiers had been re- leased. (Cairo radio, however, re- ported that Boudiaf's release was effected through the medi- ation of the United Arab Repub- lic's charge d'affaires in Alge- ria.) The abduction was considered to have seriously endangered new attempts at a reconcilia- tion between Ben Bella's Oran- based faction and the support- ers of Krim and Boudiaf who have set up their headquarters at Tizi Ouzou in Kabylia. Before the abduction, both sides appeared ready to come to terms for a political settle- ment that would pave the way for the first National Assembly elections in this newly-independ- ent North African nation.
