Stepinac was convicted on all
main counts of aiding the Axis,
the puppet Croatian regime of Dr.
Ante Pavelic nad the Croatian
wartime Ustashi terrorists. He
was convicted of approving forced
conversion of orthodox Serbs to
Catholicism; of glorifying the Us
tashi in the Catholic press, pas
toral letters and speeches of spon
soring organization of terrorist
units, of being seen in public with
German and Italian occupation
officers, and of having fanned a
hope that the government of Pre
mier Marshal Tito soon would
fall.
The court ordered that all the
prelate’s property be confiscated
and that he be deprived of all le
gal rights for five years.
Erik Lisak, former chief of se
curity police under the late Gen.
Draja Mihailovic, Chetnik leader,
and a colonel in the Ustashi, was
sentenced to be hanged. Pavle
Gunlin, described by the prosecu
tion as a Ustashi terrorist, was
sentenced to be shot.
When he heard the judgment,
Lisak shook his fist at the court
and shouted in a high-pitced
voice: “I will die for Croatia!
Long live the independent state
of Croatia!”
