rt of the Maillot Pologne camp reserved for the prisoners. Shouts were heard, and two or three shots fired. Perhaps it was an attempt at revolt or escape, which must be summarily suppressed.
Ivan Ogareff and the housch-begui walked forward and almost immediately two men, whom the soldiers had not been able to keep back appeared before them.
The housch-begui, without more information, Maillot FC Porto made a sign which was an order for death, and the heads of the two Sergio Ramos Trikot prisoners would have rolled on the ground had not Ogareff uttered a few words which arrested the sword already raised aloft.
