They said Ali Abbas Hamadi, brother of imprisoned Mohammed Ali Hamadi, 22, was taken into cus tody at Frankfurt airport Monday night because investigators think he may have been involved in this month’s kidnapping of two West Germans in Lebanon. “We suspect he was either in volved or knows something about the kidnappings,” one source, speak ing on condition he was not identi fied, told the Associated Press. In an incident West German tele vision said was related to the arrest, police in Saarland state shot and wounded a 23-year-old Palestinian and arrested his father and three brothers, a family member said. Those arrested were Hamsa Kas- sim and three of his sons, according to a fourth son. All were neighbors of Ali Abbas Hamadi, who lived in Saarland for several years until about a year ago, according to West German tele vision.

Shultz told Congress Tuesday the Reagan ad ministration stopped talking to Iran about U.S. arms after a meeting last month in West Germany, but that it has other ways to discuss mutual in terests in containing Soviet expan sion. Shultz testified that the Dec. 13 session in Frankfurt was authorized by President Reagan to underscore to Tehran that any thought on their part that there were going to be fur ther sales of arms was wrong. He told the Senate Foreign Rela tions Committee at an open hearing that there was no longer any contact in that channel. But, Shultz said, there are other points of contact. Shultz did not identify the “other ways” the two countries could re main in touch, although he did furn ish new details about the Frankfurt meeting between a two-man U.S. delegation and Iranian representa tives.
