From Family Gunin, Montreal, November, 1998
Dear Friends!
Please, try to treat this letter as an unusual appeal, not just a desperate cry for help and justice.
In October 1998, the Federal Court of Canada issued a second decision in family GUNIN's appeal. (The 1-st one was positive). That tragic
decision resumed our refugee claim, which took 4 years of our lives.
Let us make a brief description of events, which took place before that sad date.
The head of the family, Lev GUNIN, as all members of the family, was born in Bobruisk, Belarus, ex-USSR. Senseless, ridiculous
coincidences in 1971-72 turned him, a secondary school student, young composer, and advance piano player, into a person, persecuted by
Soviet authorities. They tried to prevent him from entering collegial university studies; however, his persistence and a lucky miracle broke
that wishes circle, and he received first collegial, and then university degrees in music. In spite of that, L. GUNIN could not build a
successful composer's carrier because of persecutions. In the same time, he played a specific role in ex-USSR, Belarus, and other
countries' cultural life. He's the author of novels, stories, poetry, contemporary and electronic music, works in history, essays, musicology,
music history, philosophy, etc. His articles were published in a number of newspapers all over the world.
In 1979-1986, Lev became an object of wide humiliations. He was beaten by somebody, who has links with militia (police) and KGB. The
authorities stood up in defense of the attackers. They persecuted L. GUNIN even more for bringing the attacker to trial. In another incident
he and his brother - they were hunted by two well-coordinated groups: mobsters, and a gang of youngsters. "Hunters" were also leaded by
militia (police). Later brothers GUNIN were interrogated by police /KGB men. Lev's brother Vitaly became a victim of secret medical
manipulations.
L. Gunin has multiple links with the cultural elite, famous personalities and dissidents in Moscow, St. - Peterburg (Leningrad), Vilnius,
Warsaw, and Belarus. He also has connections with the Western journalists in Moscow, and with representatives of the governments of the
Western countries.
1980-s. Because of persecutions L. GUNIN's decided to participate in the dissident movement. There are the main directions of his
dissident activities:
1. Participation in Human Rights movement and links with the most famous human rights activists.
