15 SEPTEMBER 1984, Page 7

In response to Mrs Galina Koryagin's moving account of a

visit to her husband in a Soviet prison (`The Koryagin family', 1 September), Mr Christopher Wood of Seymour Place, London Wl, has written to ask if we could publish the address of Dr Anatoly Koryagin's prison, 'so that we may remind him and his persecutors that he is not forgotten'. The address is: 422950 USSR Tatarskaya ASSR g. Chistopol uchr. UE-148/st-4.

The officer in command of the prison is Captain Romanov.

The editor of the Guardian is sent govern- ment leaks: the editor of the Spectator has been sent a leek. It arrived under plain cover, carefully wrapped in polythene, and without any explanatory note. Unlike Mr Preston, the editor destroyed it at once before the police could demand that it be produced as evidence.
