The Prague court today sentenced to prison terms ranging from one to three years, seven prominent Nazi leaders in Czechoslavakia who were found guilty of organizing Nazi Storm Troops under the guise of sports organizations, upon orders from Hitlerites in Germany.
The trial had continued for six weeks. The court held that the Storm Troops organizations were being formed with the purpose of bringing about the separation of the German parts of Czecho-Slovakia and their union with Germany.
