An underground court in Warsaw has sentenced two Poles to death for anti-Jewish crimes, according to the clandestine newspaper Rzeczpospolita Polska received here today.
The two are Janus Zkrystek, 22, a forester from the Grekkow district, who was charged with killing two Jews; and Bolasslaw Szostak, 39, of the Warsaw criminal police, who was accused of blackmailing Jews on threat of turning them over to the Germans.
Polish circles here today said that as a result of the investigation of anti-Semitism in the Polish armed forces now being made in Scotland by an inquiry commission appointed by the Polish National Council, it is expected that a number of officers and men accused of anti-Semitic activities will be brought to trial shortly. The findings of the commission, these sources said, will probably not be made public before September.
