They were incarcerated in Romania in 1959 for the terrible crime of teaching Torah and spreading Yiddishkeit. The conditions were brutal – solitary confinement, daily beatings, threats of being killed, food deprivation, etc. I think that they were in jail for 9 months that time. The Rebbe Zt”l (the current Rebbe’s father) was incarcerated several times before without his son.
what a hailige tzura! This Rebbe is the rebbe of al thel Yiddin! May Hashem bless him with health and arichas yomim!
Where were they incarcerated?
For how long? What conditions?
When were they released?
Please tell us!
AMEN
