Já ti dám komunistickou spravedlnost. Dokumenty k případu Josefa Pavla
I’ll give you communist justice – documents in the case of Josef Pavel

Summary/Abstract: J. Pavel – arrested during the large-scale arrests of leading functionaries of the Communist security services in February 1951 – was one of few who resisted mental and physical torture and refused to confess. Following his release, he pointed to the illegal actions undertaken by State Security officers during his investigation (Doc. no.1). One element of the pressure on him was the placing in his prison cell of a State Security collaborator (Doc. no.2). Following his release, Pavel began penning a book about his experiences in the international brigades in Spain and his imprisonment by the Communists, in which he writes about his cellmate, who he didn’t know was a State Security collaborator (Doc. no.3).
