Chava Upstein, residing in Kibbutz Dan, Israel, sought compensation for jewelry and a fur coat seized in Auschwitz in 1944 following her deportation. She also sought restitution for precious metal items belonging to her parents, Jakob Leb Ganz and Rifka Ganz (née Vogel), who were deported from the Viso ghetto in July 1944 to Auschwitz, where they perished that year. According to ITS Chava was later deported to the Genselnkirchen (prisoner Nr 12382) and Sommerda camps. Chava's siblings, Israel, Schewa, and Ida Maja, also perished in Auschwitz in 1944. Born in Moise, Romania, on May 6, 1924, Chava was forced into the Viso ghetto in April 1944. During the Holocaust, she was imprisoned in Auschwitz and later transferred to Gelsenkirchen and Sommerda, subcamps of Buchenwald. After the war, she returned to Romania and immigrated to Israel on February 10, 1948. On December 6, 1974, she was granted DM 2,550 under § 44a of the Federal Restitution Law (BRÜG). The case was handled by the URO in Tel Aviv and Berlin.
