Eight former Soviet secret police officials have gone on trial in Estonia charged with deporting more than 400 Estonians to Siberia in the 1940s. Five of the men appeared in a special court in Kuressaare, 200 kilometres (124 miles) south-west of the capital, Tallinn, in front of some of their alleged victims. The accused, now all in their seventies and eighties, deny the charges against them. Russia has condemned such trials of former Stalinist agents as retribution against ailing old men. The cases came to light when files were discovered in a cellar in Tallinn after Estonia regained its independence from the former Soviet Union in 1991.
