Secretsk KPSS0275128 Jan The 19671th sector of the Central Committee of the CPSOMICTION of State Security and the USSR prosecutor’s office reports on the measures taken to suppress antisocial, politically harmful manifestations from individual hostile persons. As previously reported, starting in December 1965, Moscow had repeatedly attempts to organize various kinds of gatherings and provocative performances in defense of Sinyavsky and Daniel [1], then the “memory of the victims of Stalinism” [2], then with demagogic requirements for the revision of laws. In the latter case, January 22 S.G. A similar gathering took place on Sl. Pushkin, where a group of persons gathered in the amount of 15–20 people with posters containing the requirement to cancel individual articles of the Criminal Code and the release of anti-Soviet documents that were most actively detained from the CGB of the KGB by the CGB [3]. The antisocial actions of the indicated group were accompanied by shouts: “Down with the dictatorship”, “to cancel the anti -constitutional decree”, etc. The brothers, as a rule, are preceded by the spread of various kinds of politically harmful materials, including leaflets with demagogic requirements [4]. The action of gatherings are not random. They are to a certain extent inspire and are heated by those who, in the situation of the increased political activity of the masses and the measures taken by the party to strengthen and expand socialist democracy, hiding behind the false slogans of the struggle with the “consequences of the personality cult” and for “true democracy”, embarked on the path of demagogy and, in essence, set the goal of denouncing the democratic conquest of the Soviet The number of such people include: a researcher at the All-Union Institute of Scientific and Technical Information of the USSR Academy of Sciences A. Volpin, an employee of the Institute of History of the USSR Academy of Sciences P. Yakir [5], the working literary museum A. Ginzburg and some others. The politically ambiguous performances of a personal pensioner A. Snemov also plays a certain role in this [6], writers E. Genrei [7], L. Chukovskaya [8], B. Balter [9], A. Kosterin [10], historians of A. Nekrich [11], L. Petrovsky [12], as well as the unprinciplity of some prominent scientists and cultural figures who signed some politically dubious documents [13]. The result was a group of persons in the amount of 35–40 people who carry out their politically harmful activities by manufacturing and spread of anti -Soviet literature, and award Also organizations of various kinds of manifestations and gatherings. Participants in this group appeal to the Western press, which prints the materials they manufactured, trying to spread them in the territory of the Soviet Union. Recently, more and more often and more often they go to the foreign anti -Soviet organization of the NTS [14]; Her magazine “Glass”, using these materials in anti -Soviet campaigns, calls on the basis of them to active subversive actions, and NTS leaders send direct instructions to individuals of this group. It should be noted that some members of the group directly count on the support of the reactionary circles of the West. The prosecutor's office and state security against these persons were taken by preventive measures, conversations were carried out with many, and a positive impact on the place of work and through public organizations had. However, neglecting the warnings, they did not stop their criminal activity, and foreign anti -Soviet organizations, speculating on the humanity of the Soviet government, are taking further measures to activate their provocative speeches. Taking into account the state security committee and the state security committee in order to suppress hostile activities for the manufacture, distribution and transfer of anti -Soviet literature abroad, and Also for organizing and active participation in group actions that violate public order, they were arrested and prosecuted: Ginzburg A.I., born in 1936 [15]; Workers of the Literary Museum of Galanskov Yu.T., born in 1939 [16] and Dobrovolsky A.A., born in 1938 [17]; laboratory assistant Moscow State University Lashkova V.I., born in 1944 [18]; Technician of the Institute for the Design of Fire Metallurgy enterprises Radzievsky P.A., born in 1947 [19]; Kushev E.I., born in 1947, without specific classes, a member of the Komsomol [20]; Chauffeur Haustov V.A., born in 1938 [21], Bukovsky V.K. , 1942 [22], and Delon V.N. , Born in 1947, both without certain classes [23]; and high school teacher Gabay I.Ya., born in 1935 [24]. It should be noted that some of these persons suffer from mental illness [25]. The hostile activities of previously brought to criminal liability and released in connection with mental illness Grigorenko P.T., former Major General of the Soviet Army [26], and Volpina A.S., born in 1924 born [27], are also accumulated [27]. In relation to the latter, the nature of his connection with the arrested emissary of the NTS, a citizen of Germany Shaffhauser [28], who was driving Volpin, the anti -Soviet literature and the instructions of the Center for NTS. The fact that bringing to criminal liability of the indicated persons will bring a certain reaction within the country and abroad, would be advisable to entrust the department the necessary explanatory work, including the performances of party workers, authoritative propagandists, managers of the prosecutor's office and state security workers at enterprises, institutions and especially among student youth. Committee of state security and the USSR prosecutor’s office, for their part, have in mind the preventive measures at the place of work and study of persons allowing antisocial manifestations and lack of vital lack of vitality and lack of vitality experience. At the same time, it seems advisable to prepare a detailed message to the Izvestia newspaper with an explanation of the measures taken, as well as to entrust the USSR Foreign Ministry, the KGB and the prosecutor's office to inform our foreign representatives abroad.
