Four Italians were yesterday sentenced to prison terms ranging from 12 to 30 years and two were acquitted after a 18-day trial of a six-man gang which had surrendered Jews to the Gestapo during the Fascist regime.
The two leaders of the gang, Ceccerelli and Consoli, were given 30-year terms, while their aides, Raucci and Palicari, were sentenced to 14 years and 12 years, respectively.
