English Translation

The innkeeper Tomas lies heavily in the hospital in Friedeck. The investigation, which was originally conducted by the Protectorate Criminal Police, has now been taken over by the secret state police. Criminal director Nussbaum from Brno visited the scene himself during the course of the 6th of July. Visited the injured Czech Tomas in the hospital and attended various important interrogations on the spot. With the representatives of the various police divisions, in-depth consultations were carried out during the 6th of July. (a) The perpetrators of the attack are criminals of political terrorists who have been in the rough terrain between the Neutitschein, Moravian Ostrava and the Reich border with Slovakia for a long time. Stapo has extensive evidence. (b) The terrorists undoubtedly have liaisons in the various villages, as the thefts of food and necessary commodities have accumulated throughout the area in recent times. A search operation carried out by protectorate gendarmerie and protectorate police led to the arrest of two Czech youths, who seem to be unworkable, and to the detention of three Ukrainian civilian workers. Such a search operation can hardly be more successful because of the relatively weak forces. d) During the raid, the Czech bourgeois population, e.g. the fire brigade, behaved quite correctly and loyally. Since in recent times in the further area of Moravia-Ostrava several incidents had been detected, which were due to terrorist movements, eg. arson in the employment office of Moravian-Ostreau, finding a bunker near Wernsdorf
