Mexico has granted permanent asylum in its embassy here to a man suspected of planting a bomb that exploded in a Chinese restaurant in August, slightly wounding six United States soldiers and a Honduran civilian.

Charging that the Mexicans are harboring a ''terrorist'' in violation of all international conventions, the United States has lodged a ''firm'' behind-the-scenes protest with the Mexican Government in Mexico City, diplomats in Mexico said.

But the Mexican Government has dismissed the American protest.

Mexican diplomats called the man, Alfonso Guerrero Ulloa, 22 years old, a ''freedom fighter'' whose life was at risk because of his political views. They said he had a right to asylum and was welcome to stay.

A spokesman for the Honduran armed forces, Juan Sierra Fonseco, said there was ''a lot of incriminating evidence'' that Mr. Guerrero planted the bomb, which exploded on Aug. 8 in the China Palace, near the largest United States military base in Honduras. Suspect Denies Role in Bombing.

We had military advisors in Honduras esp. during the 80’s when they were having border clashes and mini-invasions by the Sandinistas. Honduras was a major base for the Nicaraguan freedom-fighters against the communist dictatorship of the Ortega Brothers and murderer Tomas Borge’.
