Aba Achimeier, Zionist Revisionist leader was released from prison yesterday after serving an eighteen-month sentence for leading an allegedly terrorist organization.

Upon his release, Achimeier was greeted at the prison gates by a body of his Revisionist comrades. They proceeded to the Wailing Wall where Achimeier offered up prayers for the well-being of Chief Rabbi Kook, who aided him during his trial, Zev Jabotinsky, leader of the Zionist Revisionists, and Horace Samuel, noted lawyer who defended Achimeier in the Arlosoroff murder case.
