C10 CALGARY HERALD July 4, 1984 Harassment a warning Russia. They dumped the contents out of my wife's handbag and looked through all of them, and they examined the few gifts that we were taking to the man. "For themselves, they took a diary with pictures of Israel, a book of songs about Israel, and some Israeli coins. They gave us back the prayer book and some pencils. "After it became clear we weren't carrying any secrets or anything, they became nicer and suggested we take a taxi back to our hotel." The Soviet government has made no comment about the incident.

There is no Israeli embassy in Moscow because the Soviet Union and Israel do not maintain diplomatic relations. PARIS (AP) Former Israeli president Ephraim Katzir said Tuesday his interrogation by Soviet intelligence agents after he tried to visit a Jewish man might have been a warning to Soviet Jews seeking to emigrate. Katzir said he was "deeply offended" by the 90-minute interrogation by the KGB in Leningrad on Sunday. "I came as a guest of the Soviet Academy of Science," he said at en airport news conference after flying from Moscow. Katzir, 68, an internationally known biochemist who works at Israel's Weizmann Institute, was in Leningrad for a scientific meeting.

Katzir said Soviet authorities knew he was a former president and suggested the interrogation "might have been a message to the refuse-niks and any future or potential refuseniks."

BEIRUT (Reuter) Five Lebanese civilians, detained by Israel when their Beirut-bound passenger ferry was forced into Haifa by gunboats, returned home Tuesday and told of three days of repeated questioning by Israeli intelligence officers. "They interrogated me several times and kept asking if I was a Palestinian terrorist," Mohammed Jubbi, a 33-year-old Beirut import merchant, said.

After embracing his two sons, Jubbi said his treatment by the Israelis was "not good," but he declined to give details. Jubbi told reporters in Israel on Monday, in the presence of an Israeli officer, that his treatment was "gentleman- ly" The five passengers four men and a woman from the Cyprus-based ferry Alisur Blanco, forced into Haifa last Friday, spoke only briefly with reporters, saying they were tired after their ordeal and the drive from Israeli-occupied southern Lebanon. They were greeted by Education Minister Selim Al-Hoss after being driven to Beirut in an International Red Cross convoy. Four other passengers from the ferry are still being held by the Israelis. The five who returned home Tuesday were earlier handed over to the Red Cross by the Israelis in the southern town of Naqoura.

Hoss, who led Lebanese efforts to secure their release, has called the Israeli action "piracy." He told reporters the government is seeking the release of the four still held. Ismail Ahmed Haidar, a 30-year-old steward with Lebanon's Middle East Airlines, said: "We went through a critical time during the interrogations." But he gave no further details.
