The couple said that two men entered their apartment disguised as police officers. “They knocked loudly on the door and said, ‘open up, police,'” the couple said.
Mrs Blog, who survived Aushwitz, said that she sensed something was amiss, but he husband opened the door anyway.
At that point, two men dressed in black ran in and knocked the elderly couple to the ground, kicking them repeatedly.
They then tied them up and began ripping off Mrs Blog’s jewelry off her body. Mrs Blog said: "They called us 'dirty Jews' and said: 'You don’t need your jewelry anymore. You’ve been wearing it for too long. Now it’s all ours.'"
The robbers emptied the apartment of valuables.
The Dutch Embassy in Israel told Ynet: "This is a shocking incident, a brutal robbery that extremely affected the victims. Dutch police is handling this case with the utmost seriousness, and is investigating it. No suspects have been apprehended yet, so it’s difficult to make unequivocal statements about the motives.”
