Viktor Brailorsky is just completing a sentence of internal exile. Since 1972. the Brailorsky family has applied for permission to leave the Soviet Union. The Government gave Mr. Brailorsky permission to emigrate in 1976. His family. however. was denied permission to leave. Given the treatment his family could receive if he left without them. Brailorsky declined to emigrate. In this case. Soviet authorities denied the Brailorsky familys request for an exist visa based on a claim that Irina. his wife. had access to secret information. She was far from privy to secret information. Irina Brailorsky was a computer scientist at Moscow university.
