"Not extensive fonds of the District People´s Court in Žilina contains various case files pertaining the activities and crimes committed during the period of the Hlinka´s Slovak People´s Party (HSĽS) regime in 1938-1945, including the persecution of Jews in Slovakia. It contains documentation of the trials against some local party dignitaries and members who were accused of propagation of the fascism and ruling regime. Several cases refer to the activities of the Special Units of the Hlinka Guard (POHG) and their collaboration with Nazi security bodies during the occupation of Slovakia in 1944-1945, in particular to the violent acts and catching the Jews. One of the five concentrations centers for the deportees in Slovakia was created in Žilina, so various case files provide with information from the trials with locals who were actively participating in the process of deportation, in particular assisting in concentration, searching for the Jews in their households and serving as guard of the transports in the Slovak territory."@eng .
