Chava Upstein, residing in Kibbutz Dan, Israel, sought restitution for precious metal items and jewelry seized in 1944 following deportation to Auschwitz, which belonged to herself and her parents, Jakob Leb Ganz and Rivka Ganz née Vogel, who perished in Auschwitz in 1944. Compensation was also sought for personal belongings, including gold jewelry and a fur coat, seized in Auschwitz. The applicant's siblings, Israel Ganz, Schewa Ganz, and Ida Maja Ganz, also perished in Auschwitz in 1944. Chava Upstein was born in Moise, Romania, on May 6, 1924, and was forced into the Vișeu de Sus ghetto in April 1944. On May 20, 1944, she was deported to Auschwitz, where she was separated from her family during the selection process, and was later transferred to the Buchenwald subcamps of Gelsenkirchen and Sömmerda. After the war, she returned to Romania and immigrated to Israel on October 2, 1948. On December 6, 1974, she was granted a hardship compensation of DM 2,550 for herself and on behalf of her parents. The URO offices in Tel Aviv and Berlin handled the case. The file mentions an unrelated victim named Chaja Alta Acharoni, who has a claim for compensation herself (BRUE/6222) and an inherited claim after her father (BRUE/6221).
