HEYDRICH SHOOTING

VICTIM A PARALYTIC CRIPPLE.

FURTHER EXECUTIONS.

LONDON,.-June 1

Heydrich, who was shot at Prague, will, if he survives his inquires, spend the rest of his life as a paralytic cripple, incapacitated for further work.

The “Telegraph’s” Stockholm correspondent says that uncensored information from Prague reports that bullets and bomb splinters lodged in B'eydrich’s spleen, and in several vertebrae of- his spine, are causing complications. The Prague radio announced the execution at Prague and Brno of another 27 Czechs, including four women, one of whom was aged 74. She was killed with her four children. Other victims included two university professors. Those executed include two high officials of the Ministry of Agriculture. They were charged with harbouring unregistered persons. The Germans have killed 82 people in connection with the attack on Heydrich, some of sheltering unregistered persons and others for having shown hostility to Germany. ■
