Josef Margalit, residing in Jerusalem, Israel, seeks compensation for harm to liberty, education, and health. Born in Kowno, Lithuania, he was interned in the Kowno Ghetto from 15.08.1941 to Autumn 1943. He then lived in hiding with Polish farmers until liberation in July 1944. His uncle Pawlisze Margolies found him in hiding with a Christian peasant. After the war, he was in a children's home in Kowno, then a DP camp in Ulm, Germany, before immigrating to Israel in June 1947 with the Youth Aliyah. Compensation is also sought for harm to life and liberty for his parents, Jaakov Margolis and Chana Margolis (née Brenner), who were killed in the Kowno Ghetto in July 1944. His sister, Chaja Raja Blumenau (née Margolis), also survived the Kowno Ghetto. The case was handled by the United Restitution Organization (URO) offices in Jerusalem, Frankfurt, and Tel-Aviv (MILTAM). He was awarded DM 5,250 for harm to liberty, a capital compensation of DM 7,340 and a pension back payment of DM 4,993 for harm to life, and a one-time capital compensation of DM 720 for harm to health.
