Four for trial in Poland
NZPA-Reuter Warsaw Four of Poland's bestknown political prisoners will stand trial next month accused of plotting to overthrow the State, defence lawyers said.
Jacek Kuron, Adam Michnik, Zbigniew Romaszewski and Henryk Wujec, all former advisers to the outlawed Solidarity labour movement, will appear in Warsaw’s District Military Court on July 13, lawyers for Kuron and Michnik said. Government officials declined to comment. The trial date was confirmed by Kuron’s son, Maciek. The four, who were also members of the disbanded Kor group of dissident intellectuals, are held at Warsaw’s Rakowiecka jail with seven Solidarity leaders. No date for the trial of the seven has been set, the lawyers said.
