I wish to express my continued concern over the case of Moscow refusenik Igor Guberman and his family. Mr. Guberman quit his engineering Job to become an editor for the journal Jews in the U.S.S.R.. in 1979. As his circle of friends and colleagues was decimated by arrests. exiles. and emigration. Guberman decided to establish a new life for himself and his family in Israel. His request for exit visas was denied. and he was arrested soon thereafter on the pretext that he was trafficking in stolen icons. This was clearly a trumpedup charge. KGB officials had threatened to arrest him if he refused to inform for them about the Journal he edited.
