The National Conference on Soviet Jewry learned Monday that Wolf Chudnovsky, a Kiev refusnik, was violently beaten on July 29, the second time within a one-week period. Chudnovsky is the father of Grigory Chudnovsky, who has been suffering from myasthenia gravis, a muscle-wasting and possibly fatal disorder, for the last 14 of his 25 years. Since their application to emigrate to Israel eight months ago the family has been subjected to severe harassment. The NCSJ is coordinating a major campaign on behalf of the Chudnovsky family.
