Ditar von Wisliczeny, Gestapo liaison agent with the puppet pro-Nazi Slovak Government, was last night sentence by a Slovak ##ort to be hanged for his responsibility in the deportation of thousands of Jews ## German death camps.
Earlier, the court heard testimony to the effect that Wisliczeny had promised any Jews their freedom from deportation if they would pay him a huge bribe. The Slovak Jews, by that time already impoverished by the Nazis and local fascists who ###d confiscated or fined them most of their worldly goods, managed to leader. Witnesses ?stified, however, that despite the payment of the bribe, the defendant was responsible for the deportation of the very Jews whom he had promised to protect.
