U.S. legislator warns Polish law firms not to get tangled with disputed lands
Twenty law firms in Poland will receive a warning letter advising them
to abandon any transactions on property which had formerly belonged to
Jews before World War II. The author of the letter, Dov Hikind warns that
those transactions will be petitioned in American and Polish courts.
Hikind is one of the leaders of the campaign which is trying to force the
Polish government to return property formerly belonging to Jews. He said
he would send another 20 such letters to other law firms every month.
Hikind is a New York state legislator representing Brooklyn, the district
with the biggest Jewish population of holocaust survivors.
