Lebanese Man
Held in Shooting
of PLO Leader

ADAT SHALOM

GENEVA — A 22-year-
old Lebanese man was ar-
rested here Tuesday on sus-
picion of having assassi-
nated Zuheir Mohsen, chief
of military operations of the
Palestine Liberation
Organization, in France
last month. _
The Justice Ministry said
the suspect, Mohsen
Jaroudi, was picked up for
questioning Monday and
was later arrested at the re-
quest of the French
authorities.
Mohsen died on July 26, a
day after being shot in the
head as he was entering his
apartment in Cannes. Ac-
cording to some reports, he
was the victim of a feud be-
tween Palestinian factions.
Others said Iraq was re-
sponsible—The PLO accused
Israeli and Egyptian
agents.
France has requested the
extradition of Jaroudi, but if
he denies the charges, the
Swiss cabinet may have to
decide whether to extradite
him.

Shcharansky Lawyer Ousted
While Senators in USSR

MONTREAL (JTA) —
Irwin Cotler, a McGill Uni-
versity professor who
attended a political science
congress in Moscow last
week, reported that he was
ousted from the Soviet
Union and he flew to Lon-
don on a Japanese Airline
flight.
Cotler, who is the ap-
pointed lawyer of the
Shcharansky family and
has prepared a 900-page
brief in defense of Anatoly
Shcharansky, the Jewish
prisoner of conscience, met
while in Moscow with
numerous refusniks and
paid a visit to Prof. Andrei
Sakharov, the Nobel Prize
scientist.
Cotler said that all his re-
quests for an interview with
Soviet officials were re-
jected. Cotler was on his
way to a Moscow suburb in
the company of refusnik
Prof. Alexander Lerner to
congratulate Shcharans-
ky's parents, who were
celebrating their 50th wed-
ding anniversary with a
one-day hunger strike in
protest against the treat-
ment of their son, when the
car they were in was stop-
ped by the police.
Lerner was arrested
and Cotler was told that
he had to immediately
leave the Soviet Union.
In Jerusalem, Secretary
of State Cyrus Vance tele-
phoned Avital
Shcharansky, wife of

Shcharansky, at her home
in Israel to let her know that
the United States is aware
of her husband's deteriorat-
ing health.
Vance reportedly told her
that the American Embassy
in Moscow has expressed
concern to Soviet
authorities. He promised
Mrs. Shcharansky that as
soon as the Soviet
authorities respond, he
would let her know.
(On Wednesday, Soviet
authorities denied reports
that Shcharansky's health
is failing.)
Meanwhile, U.S. Senator
Carl Levin (D-Mich.) said
that he will attempt to meet
with Russian refusniks dur-
ing his visit this week to the
Soviet Union.
Sen. Levin and five
other senators went to
the Soviet Union,
England and Belgium to
discuss the SALT II
Treaty, the possibili :ies
of a SALT III agreem ant
and other military mat-
ters with allied officials
and Soviet leaders.
Accompanying Sen.
Levin and Mrs. Levin are:
Sens. Joseph R. Biden, Jr.,
chairman of European Af-
fairs subcommittee of the
Senate Committee on
Foreign Relations; David
Boren (D-Okla.); Bill Brad-
ley (D-N.J.), Richard Lugar
(R-Ind.) and David - Pryor
(D-Ark.).
