Police probing the bombing of a synagogue here last night sought today to determine whether there was any tie between the attack and the recent seizure of Nazi war criminal Adolf Eichmann in nearby Argentina.

The bomb touched off a fire in the synagogue and damaged nearby buildings but no one was reported injured. Unexploded bombs were found in two other Jewish places in the first outbreak of anti-Semitic violence listed here during the past several months.
