Wohlrab, Franz Leeb, and Ludwig Maitzen were defendants in a mass trial of nine police officers for collaboration. Hackl, Wohlrab, Leeb, and Maitzen were found guilty of treason, sentenced to death, and executed by hanging on 13 August 1934.

In Vienna alone, at least 260 police officers were arrested after officials found a list of Nazi Party members while searching a police officer's home.
