The Landsberg war-crimes prison, where all Germans sentenced for war crimes by American courts are held, will pass into German hands by the end of the year, it was announced here by the State Secretary in the Bavarian Ministry of Justice. Remaining inmates will be transferred to the “model jail” at Bad Reichenhall. Out of several thousand war criminals formerly held at Landsberg, only 43 are left at this time. Their cases are currently being reviewed.
