Hungarian Nazis in the French zone of Germany are posing as Jewish refugees and are attempting to emigrate as such to havens in South America, the Sunday newspaper Fueggetlen Magyarorszag reports.
It charges that the fascists, pressed by French authorities and fearing repatriation to Hungary, have obtained false identity papers and a considerable sum of ## from an unnamed organization. Among the “refugees” are former members of the pro-Nazi militia, labor camp guards and special police and storm troopers responsible for the torture of the thousands of Jews and democratic Hungarians.
