VICIOUS CRIME
COMMITTED BY VILLAGES IN BENGAL. BRITISH AIRMEN MURDERED. (By Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright) BOMBAY, May 5. An echo of the disturbances of last August was heard before the Court at Monghyr, in Bengal, when 10 persons were charged with having done to death the British crew of a plane which crashed into flood waters in the Monghyr district. It is alleged that when the plane crashed, some villagers brought ashore two injured members of the crew and that others began to hurl stones at them. The crew again took refuge in the water. A party of miscreants is then alleged to have rowed out and assaulted them causing their death.
