No. 58 resident, who familiarized himself with the subject of his interrogation and exhorts the truth of the following: To the S a c h e i On 25.9.1943 I drove by the passenger train from Gross Kunzendorf near M.Ostrau to Moravia-Ostrava-Oderfurt. The train arrived at M. O. Witkowitz station at about 18.45 am. In my company was my wife, Elisabeth and my 4 è son Manfred. At the railway yard M. Ostre-Witkowitz, I saw a casserole and still noticed how a man of 3 uniformed members of the police were pushed into a room of the station building next to the luggage room. Among the other people present in the wagon was said to be the doctor Dr. K o p r i w a of the sanatorium Kunzendorf. Then I left the wagon and went into the room where Dr. K o p r i w a was taken. I wanted to convince myself of the further events, i.e. the reason why Dr. Ko p r I w a has been forcibly transferred to this room, because I am known as a calm and prudent person. In this room I met three uniformed police officers of the Reg.Police and two gentlemen in civil. Whether the two gentlemen were also in civil matters, I can't say with certainty. However, I assume that they were also Pol.Religious because one of these gentlemen on the objection, the Dr. K o p r i wa , he let himself be of the prot. When I arrived, I noticed that Dr. K o p r i - w a was visibly nervous and excited and made his appearance seem like he had been taken along by the treatment he had received. I asked the present Pol. officials why Dr. K o p r i w a was arrested, and I was told that he had refused to legitimise. On my statement that the person arrested was Dr. K o P - r i W a from the sanatorium in Kunzendorf near Frankstadt, ././.
