Assault Alleged at Rudenstine Reception

Nides also said that the security guard acted inappropriately and has been put on leave by Wackenhut.

“The guard mistakenly assumed he was part of the protest group. Under no circumstances do we have any instructions to harm protesters,” he said.

Nides was quick to add that the investigation is not over.

“I’m not in a position to deny any of the facts,” he said.

Deborah Gelin ’79, a member of the board of the Harvard Club of Washington D.C., said she gave Eitches a band-aid for his wound.

“The guards gave me a band-aid to give to him,” she said. “It was more like a paper cut than anything else.”

Karen L. Dechman, another member of the Club board, said that she did not see any cases of abuse.
