Sakharovs protest of an already internationally unpopular military action was the breaking point. his activities were classified as "subversive." In January 1980. he was abducted on his way to the Academy of Sciences and immediately exiled to Gorky. The Soviet Union has committed an irreparable crime against humanity by trying to silence an individual whose work would surely have benefited people of al! nations. The Soviet regime has denied both Sakharov and his wife necessary medical attention. and prohibited his daughterinlaw from emigrating to join their son in the United States. We seek the release of Dr. Sakharov and political amnesty for others who have dared to protest persecution.
