Batist. one of the witnesses yesterday. explained the tragic fate of Inna Meiman in his testimony. Irma was a victim of cancer. and was in need of treatment in the United States. The Soviet Government. however. delayed issuing her an exit visa until her illness could no longer be cured. She was released to Washington. DC. in January. but passed away in February of this year. Her husband Naum was refused permission to accompany Inna to the United States and to attend her funeral. Naum still wishes to emigrate to the West. He has been waiting for over 10 years for his freedom. I appeal to the Soviet Government on a humanitarian basis to release Naum Meiman to the West immediately.9
