Géza Malasits
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Géza Malasits or Gejza Malašić (1874-1948) was a Hungarian politician of Croatian descent. He was born in Međimurje.
Member of the Hungarian Social-Democratic Party, Malasits was a deputy of the Hungarian parliament after 1924. As a self-educated worker, he learned several languages beyond Hungarian and Croatian and broadened his outlook in England. He was arrested in 1944 by the Gestapo and deported to a concentration camp, but survived the afflictions.
Following his conviction, Malasits converted to the Unitarianism and later became a member of the Church Council of the Unitarian Church in Hungary.
