Epic of Bloody "Prize" Continues
Kauno Diena: 16.04.2004; author: Leonas Zalys; page: 1; 17
The US sports channel ESPN has broadcast one more report from Lithuania
after strict disapprovals of Lithuanian Government and Lithuanian-Americans.
The first report informed about the alleged participation of inter-war
Lithuanian basketball players in the killing of the Jews. In the second
report broadcast on Sunday former President of Lithuania Valdas Adamkus
rejected the accusations against well-known basketball players Norkai;
famous historian Saulius Suziedelis claimed it vital to substantiate
accusations by facts, not gossips.
Meanwhile, Israeli historians
who wrote about this horrible "prize" claimed they had based their writings on words of one witness Jewish Izaok Nemencik
who had lived in Kaunas.
However, brothers Norkai and other inter-war basketball players
accused of the killing of the Jews denied their guilt. Despite
that, the case related to this scandal was filed to a special
department under the US Ministry of Justice for investigation.
