The Polish student Zamorsky, who was arrested after the anti-Jewish riots in November, and charged with having conspired to have Jews blamed for a bombing which he himself engineered and of which he was the victim, was given a suspended two-year jail sentence today. The sentence for the “self-bombing” will be withheld for five years, however. Three accomplices in the false accusation of the Jews were given one-year sentences, suspended for three years.
