 Romani children were imprisoned here as well as adults. The camp was run by Czech gendarmes. Prisoners were rounded up using registers compiled by the Czech police, who'd been collecting data on Roma for many years before the Nazi occupation. Božena Ružičková was 18 when she and her fiancé were deported to Leti, where she was forced to work in a quarry before she managed to escape from the camp. Her interview is in the archives in the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum.
