Full Testimony	On 7 May 1943 at 5 a.m., Lipszer arrived, the commandant of the military police in Warsaw, along with a few dozen of gendarmes from Rembertów and Otwock. The execution was to take place behind the sawmill (all executions on Jews caught in the neighbourhood were carried out in sight of the people living in the barrack by the sawmill). [...] They were led out in groups of three. When it was my brother's turn, he managed to grab the gendarme's gun. Unfortunately the "sten" jammed. The remaining people were killed on the spot from the grenades thrown into the barracks. All of them (90 people) lay in a mass grave behind the sawmill.
