A non-Jewish woman who was caught smuggling Jews from Croatia into Hungary was fined 4,000 pengoes and sentenced to three months imprisonment by the district court at Novi-Sad, it is reported in the Donau Zeitung, which the Nazis publish in Belgrade, the former Yugoslav capital.

The prosecutor, who charged that the woman was a “professional smuggler of Jews,” protested to the court that the sentence was too mild.
