On 19 September 1942, my father and my mother were arrested at home by the Gestapo. They were put in Kielce prison. Their arrest took place four days after the Germans arrested my brother Tadeusz, who, already after my father’s death, was taken to Auschwitz.
My mother was still in prison when she was informed in writing that my father was dead. The father died on 8 October 1942. He was buried in the Piaski-Kielce cemetery. In 1945 his body was transferred from the Piaski-Kielce to the Partisans’ Cemetery.
My brother was arrested by Kazimierz Rutkowski (from the criminal police) who is now in England. I haven’t heard from my brother since he was taken to Auschwitz.
The report was read out.
