Dr Siegfried Szarfstein-Ramler is arrested in town. The reason isn't known, but he's taken to Central Police Station. He's held for about 27 days, and beaten by a Gendarme. He gives medical treatment to Gendarmes and prisoners, and he sees signs of torture on the prisoners. He will be present when a member of the HKVDC jumps to his death to avoid further torture.
