Gutka Opoczynska, née Karger, a former student from Litzmannstadt (Lodz), Poland, residing in Pardes Rosenblum, Israel, sought compensation for harm to liberty suffered. She was forced to wear a yellow badge, perform forced labor in the Sattler-Resort, and was confined in the Litzmannstadt (Lodz) Ghetto from February 1940 until August 1944, followed by deportation to Auschwitz, Mittelstein, and Ludwigsdorf concentration camps, where she was liberated on May 8, 1945. After liberation, she returned to Litzmannstadt (Lodz), then went to Linz, Austria, in early 1946, and was later transported to the Hofgeismar and Aschbach DP camps in Germany before emigrating to Israel in 1948. Compensation was also sought for harm to health, specifically the loss of her left eye after being beaten by an SS guard during an Appell in Auschwitz in September 1944. Additionally, Gutka Opoczynska sought compensation for harm to life suffered due to the death of her parents, Nechemia Karger and Frania Karger née Czernobrodska, who perished after undergoing a Selektion upon arrival in Auschwitz in August 1944. In 1956, a settlement was reached for harm to liberty, granting DM 9,000 for 60 months of detention. In 1957, a final settlement for harm to health was concluded, awarding a capital payment of DM 9,084 and a monthly pension of DM 125. The case was handled by the United Restitution Organization (URO) offices in Tel Aviv and Munich. Her husband has his own claim for harm from Nazi persecution (AZ 33 516) .
