The Jewish motor-cyclists from Palestine who were arrested on the Polish-Latvian frontier last week for being on Polish territory after the expiration of their Palish visa (they explained that this was due to delay in repairing their motor-cycles), have now been released, and the fine of 100 zlotys each, for non-payment of which they were sent to prison, has been annulled.
The motor-cyclists have now left for Latvia.
