The Rumanian Supreme Court today turned down an appeal submitted by Iosub Duca, a Jewish war criminal, of Belcesti, near Jassy, who had been sentenced to ten years imprisonment and loss of civil rights for war crimes committed against humanity.
Buda had been found guilty of acting as a police informer during the war. It was on his information that the Jassy police arrested a number of Jews who were later subjected to tortures in the Jassy police station and in the death trains organized in 1941.
