Jonina Lewin, a former student from Kowno, Lithuania, residing in Petach Tikva, Israel, sought compensation for harm to liberty suffered during the Nazi era. This included being forced to wear the Yellow Badge from July 1941, imprisonment in the Kowno Ghetto from August 1941 to January or summer 1944, followed by imprisonment in the Stutthof concentration camp for a few more weeks, and the forced labor camps of Thorn (Toruń), Maerzen, and Lubitsch until her liberation during a death march near Bromberg on January 23, 1945. She also sought compensation for harm to life suffered by her father, Mendel Lewin, who perished in the Dachau concentration camp (Kaufering subcamp) on November 6, 1944. Jonina's mother, Sina Lewin (née Rubin), and her younger sister, Mascha Lewin, also perished during the Holocaust after being separated from Jonina in the Stutthof concentration camp in 1944. After liberation, Jonina stayed in the DP camps of Landsberg am Lech and Eschwege until emigrating to Israel in early 1947, where she later worked as a practical nurse with support from the Youth Aliyah program. Following her death on December 11, 1959, her claims were continued by her husband, Jizchak Pensuch, and their two sons, Ron and Menachem, who also sought compensation for harm to her health. The heirs were awarded DM 6,300 for harm to liberty, DM 1,200 for loss of education, and a total of DM 14,970 for harm to health. The case was handled by the United Restitution Organization (URO) offices in Tel Aviv, Frankfurt am Main, and Munich.
