Barbie Trial -- Day 13 -- Witness testifies 
1987 May 27 
The President, AndrĂ© Cerdini, enters and the session begins. Witnesses present at this time are called from the viewing public and brought out of the court room to a separate chamber. The session is temporarily suspended as the witnesses exit. The President enters and the session restarts. The bailiff reads the charges being filed against Klaus Barbie. The President then introduces Mme. Sabina Zlatin (maiden name Chwast). She describes her activity as a nurse in 1939, where she worked in a hospital in Argentan and then in Montpellier. She assisted with the movement and placement of children for protection and participated in the French Resistance. She moved with her husband to Izieu, in the sous-prefecture of Belley, before he was captured and deported to Russia. Her testimony is interrupted by the end of the reel.
