Ester Lew, residing in Raanana, Israel, seeks compensation for harm to liberty suffered during the Nazi era. Born in Dlugosiodlo, Poland, on December 26, 1931, she and her family were expelled from their home in September 1939. They fled to Warsaw, where they lived under conditions resembling imprisonment, were forced to wear the Yellow Badge, and her father was subjected to forced labor. The family then escaped to Wilno (Vilnius) and were confined to the ghetto from September 1941 to April 1943. Before a major 'Aktion', her father arranged for them to live in hiding with a Polish family until liberation in July 1944. After the war, from 1944 to 1946, they were sent to Nizhny Tagil in Russia. They then moved to DP camps in Hof and Deggendorf, Germany, from 1946 to 1949, before immigrating to Israel in 1949. Her father, Kanoch Olewkowicz, her mother, Fejga-Chaja Olewkowicz, and her brothers, Nachman and Chaim Leib Olewkowicz, underwent the same persecution and survived the war. On January 14, 2000, the Claims Conference rejected her application for the Article 2 Fund, stating that because she was in the interior of the Soviet Union during the war, her persecution could not be considered proven.
