MARTYROLOGIVM AVRIS
In memory of people whom history prefers to forget

This page is dedicated to those 'martyrs' who,
by their wretched fortune,
after being made to live a life of iniquity
that led to the humiliation of the prisons,
unnatural death claimed their young lives
shortly thereafter.
The torch of memory
May the fire of their memory
never be extinguished
