mand concrete progress.
In March, Yosef Begun,
Vladimir Slepak, Ida Nudel,
and other leaders of the cam-
paign issued their demands.
They speak for themselves:
1. Diery Jew should have
the right to emigrate to Israel
without having to explain his
reason for doing so and
without regard to whether or
not he has relatives in Israel.
2. In the case of a refusal
based on "regime considera-
tions," the refusal should be
given in writing. This docu-
ment should indicate the
organs to which an appeal

may be made and the precise
time limit of the restriction
on the right to emigrate from
the Soviet Union. When this
time limit has elapsed, an ex-
it permit should be granted
automatically.
3. This Soviet Union should
grant exit visas to Israel to all
Prisoners of Zion in the Soviet
Union and also, in the
shortest possible time, re-
examine the cases of refuse-
niks who have been waiting
for visas for ten years or
more.

NEWS'

Vanunu Goes On Mal
Under Tight Security

HELEN DAVIS

Special to The Jewish News

erusalem — Former
nuclear technician
Mordechai Vanunu,
who disclosed Israel's alleged
nuclear secrets in the Sunday
Times of London last October,
went on trial in Jerusalem
this week charged with
treason and espionage.
Elaborate security ar-
rangements were arranged to
screen Vanunu from any con-
tact with journalists and the
public waiting outside the
Jerusalem District Court
when he arrived in a closed
police van at 7 a.m. on
Sunday.
The van drove into a
specially constructed
enclosure, from where
Vanunu was escorted directly
into a corridor that had been
sealed off from the rest of the
building. He was then led up
a flight of stairs to a closely
guarded hall on the first floor,
where the trial is being held.
Not even family members of
Moroccan-born Vanunu, 33,
are being allowed into the
court.
At the opening session, ac-
cording to an official state-
ment issued by the Justice
Ministry, the three-judge
panel agreed to consider
Vantinu's contention that the
confession he made during in-
terrogation was inadmissible.
Defense Attorney Avigdor
Feldman also informed the
court that he would challenge
its right to hear the case
because of the allegedly il-
legal manner in which
Vanunu was brought back to
Israel to stand trial.
Vanunu had worked at the
top-secret Israeli nuclear
facility near the Negev
Desert town of Dimona for
over nine years before leaving

j

Israel last May after reported-
ly embracing the Palestinian
cause and applying to join the
Israel Communist Party. He
travelled to Australia, after
stop-overs in Moscow and the
Far East, and settled in
Sydney.

There he converted to
Christianity, developed two
rolls of color film he had
taken in the Dimona plant
and decided to to reveal the
secrets of Israel's nuclear pro-
gram to the world.
He sold his story to the
Sunday Times for a reported
six-figure sum and travelled
to London for what the news-
paper described as "extensive
debriefings over a period of
four weeks?'
Based on what it learned
from Vanunu, the Sunday
Times estimated that "Israel
was producing 40 kilograms
of plutonium a year, enough
to make 10 bombs!'
"During the period that
Vanunu worked there," said
the newspaper, "Israel
therefore produced enough
plutonium for 100 nuclear
bombs of at least 20 kilotons,
equivalent to the one dropped
on Nagasaki!'
On September 30, just five
days before the two-page ex-
pose appeared in the Sunday
Times, Mordechai Vanunu
disappeared from the London
hotel where he had been liv-
ing under an alias.
Six weeks later, the Israeli
authorities finally conceded
that he was in an Israeli
prison awaiting trial. They
declined to explain . how he
had got there.
This week, it was an-
nounced in Oslo that Vanunu,
who comes from a deeply
religious family in Beersheba
and who had a strict Ortho-
dox upbringing, was being
considered for a Nobel Prize.
