European Resistance Archive/European Resistance Archive (ERA)
-
Just before the warrant for my arrest came out, the Home Guard political police arrested my father.
-
At the time the Germans were in Ljubljana,
-
a lot of the competency was left to the Home Guard.
-
They were also a part of the SS, meaning the German police.
-
So they, too, swore allegiance to Hitler and the German Reich.
-
They carried out many arrests towards the end of the war.
-
It was like that when the Home Guard political police came to take my father away.
-
Only many years later we found out why.
-
Warrants for arrests were found in the archives. They were addressed to the chief of the Home Guard political police, Lovro Hacin.
-
Later I found out, also from my students, of whom some were on the opposite side, with the Home Guard…
-
One of my students gave me lots of information because his family was
-
and still is in contact with the Home Guard immigration.
-
Through this student I found out where my father was killed.
-
Not just through him, I also found out directly at Hacin’s procession.
-
There was a huge procession in Ljubljana against Rösener, the chief of the SS in the Ljubljana province.
-
Against Rupnik, who was the president of this Ljubljana province as well as the military head of the Home Guard.
-
And against Hacin, who was the chief of the Home Guard political police.
-
I was informed already during the war, from the intelligence service of the LF that Hacin was my father’s enemy.
-
I should tell my father that the LF can help him get to safety.
-
I went to my father and I told him this. He said that he’d done nothing and wasn’t going anywhere. It was a matter of life or death.
