I was interned at the Majdanek camp between 18 January and April 1944. I knew suspect Macha, who was an overseer, by her name. Prisoners called her “Mutti”. She used vulgar expressions but she was kind-hearted. I did not hear of instances in which she tortured prisoners.
I was assigned to work at the barrack where the overseers lived. I cleaned, among others, the room which belonged to suspect Macha. On her orders, I filled a case with bread, bacon, butter, etc., which she then gave to Polish prisoners. In a conversation she had with me, she said that these poor things had to be fed because they were hungry. I know that the suspect sent letters from Polish female prisoners, circumventing the camp censorship. She did this unselfishly. She offered to send my letter too. I know that the suspect also sent two parcels with clothing to Regina Olszewska, who lives near Warsaw. I cannot say anything negative about her.
Suspect Lächert, who was an overseer, was dreaded at the camp because she beat not only women but also men. I once saw her beat a worker to the point that he bled because he had given a piece of dry bread to a female prisoner. She beat the woman and locked her up in the so-called bunker.
On another occasion, I saw as she almost beat unconscious a young prisoner because she had accidentally dropped a few pieces of wood on the floor as she was passing by Lächert’s room. The suspect also beat me with a whip because I had given some bread to a prisoner.
As regards suspect Orlowski, who started her service at the camp in summer 1943, I knew her by name. She was overseer at the laundry. The suspect tortured prisoners severely, beating them for no reason. I witnessed as she beat and kicked a young prisoner in her room because she had stoked the furnace in an improper way. When I came to the prisoner’s defense, I was also severely beaten. On another occasion, in fall 1943, I saw the suspect, together with another overseer, beat a Russian prisoner unconscious because she had taken worn male underpants from the laundry.
