Five More Czechs Escape Homeland
Five Czech escapees reported fleeing Czechoslovakia by airliner, forcing a landing in Germany under pistol threat. The group, including two young women, cited coercion to join the Communist party or lose jobs, with the leader a former Czech air force pilot. The refugees, seeking asylum in the U.S. zone, described a tightening police state and lack of Russians in streets. A Czech vice consul in Munich confirmed additional training-plane crashlandings near Ingolstadt.
