Akce „Teroristé“. Pozadí protikomunistických odbojových činů ve Žlebech u Čáslavi v roce 1950
Operation “Terrorists” the background to the anticommunist resistance activities in Žleby by Čáslav in 1950

Summary/Abstract: The first months of 1950 were an unusually busy period for the regional command of the State Security in Pardubice. Spontaneous resistance began springing up against the arbitrary actions of Communist functionaries in the region, who in keeping with the enforced line of an implacable class struggle against the power structures became in the local conditions zealous instruments in the persecution and harassment of their fellow citizens. Žleby by Čáslav became one centre of such anti-regime activities. The name that Communist secret police investigators gave to the case – “Operation Terrorists” – testifies eloquently to the seriousness that they attached to it. As does the final outcome in the form of three death sentences and a total of 137.5 years in prison.
