Murders in Miskolc
During the 1956 Revolution in Miskolc, an outraged mob beat and hanged two State Security Authority (ÁVH) officers – Gyula Gáti and Lajos Freimann – after the ÁVH had earlier opened fire on the demonstrators. Although both victims were Jewish, only Freimann’s ethnicity was brought up during the lynching: he was repeatedly called a “Jew” as he was chased and then killed. Although the primary motive was retaliation against the ÁVH, Freimann’s fate was also sealed by anti-Semitic sentiments.
