      After the Mäntsälä uprising, the leadership of the Lapua movement was sentenced to light prison sentences. In April 1932, Parliament passed the Amnesty Act, under which the rank and file were not prosecuted. Charges were brought against one hundred people. In November, the Turku Court of Appeal convicted a total of 22 people of sedition and 32 of aiding and abetting it, all with relatively light prison sentences.[269][270] A sympathetic court dismissed the charges of treason and found the Lapuan leaders guilty only of aiding and abetting the sedition. Many officers involved in the rebellion were not charged at all in court. Vuorimaa and Terä received the harshest sentences, two and a half years in a disciplinary prison. Kosola and Wallenius received nine-month suspended prison sentences. The Supreme Court later extended the sentences slightly.[269]
