“What was in store for the sick people was carefully concealed
from the medical staff. After that, special cars arrived at the
hospital. The sick people were pushed into them, some 60 to 70
persons into each car. Everyone could see these atrocities which
were perpetrated in front of the ward windows. The patients were
pushed into the cars and murdered there. Their corpses were
thrown out on the spot. This awful deed went on for two days,
during which 365 patients were exterminated. The patients who
had not completely lost their minds soon realized the truth.
There were heart-rending scenes. Thus, a young girl, patient Y,
in spite of all of the efforts of the doctor, understood that
death was awaiting her. She came out of the ward, embraced the
doctor, and quietly asked him, ‘Is this the end?’ Pale as death,
she went to the car and, refusing any assistance, climbed
inside. The entire staff was told that any criticism or any
expression of displeasure would be completely out of place and
would be regarded as sabotage.”
