Warsaw - Former Solidarity leader Lech Walesa testified Wednesday at a trial of Polish communist-era chiefs accused of ordering a 1970 massacre, taking the stand against the general who once jailed him.
General Wojciech Jaruzelski, who would later declare martial law in an attempt to stamp out the Solidarity labor union, was Poland's defense minister when security forces killed 44 shipyard workers on the Baltic coast during food-price protests.
