Activists sacked
NZPA-Reuter Prague i At least 10 Czechoslovaks [ who signed the “Charter 77” human rights manifesto have been dismissed from their jobs in recent weeks, sources in the human rights movement have said. Ten other charter signatories were given their notices in January. Some of those dismissed recently were not given reasons while others were told it was explicitly because they signed the charter, the sources said. The manifesto, first circu-j lated last December, charges the Czechoslovak authorities with failure to implement in full the human rights declarations ratified last year.
