Solidarity activist Marian Jurczyk said Polish authorities have accused him of distributing anti-government pamphlets and ordered him not to leave Szczecin, the port city where he lives, without police permission. Observers said the action against Jurczyk, an early organizer of the Solidarity trade union movement, was aimed at deterring others from commemorating the fifth anniversary of the shipyard strike in Gdansk that forced the government to recognize Solidarity.
