Carmen Mory, 40, one of the chief guards at the notorious Ravensbrueck concentration camp for women was accused today of administering lethal injections to Jewish women from Czechoslovakia.

Other witnesses reported that experiments in sterilization and other barbarous medical experiments were carried on at the camp.
