A few clarifications from various estonian-languague newspaper interviews with her. She was arrested at age 14 (spent 15th birthday in NKVD holding cells in the infamous Pagari Str. building). Also, she wasn't a suspect initially, but was arrested together with a group of schoolchildren who tried to smuggle out a wounded forest brother from guarded hospital, someone broke and mentioned the statue during interrogations. Nice quote: "It was wooden. We could have just doused it with gasoline and set fire to it, but we wanted it to go with a bang". ] 23:53, 12 May 2007 (UTC) |

::''"Et kaua me vahime seda punast viisnurka, venelastest korteriröövlitele püstitatud sammast. Samal ajal kui meie sambad on kõik lõhutud. See ei mahtunud kuidagi pealuu sisse. Leidsime, et kui niisugused röövlid märatsevad Eestis, siis vaadaku, kui hea on, kui õhku lastakse nende mälestusmärgid. Võinuks ju selle puupostamendi ka bensiiniga üle kallata ja põlema panna, kuid tahtsime seda ikka pauguga teha."'' |

::"How long should we watch this red star, a memorial for russian looters. At the time when all our statues are being destroyed. We just couldn't get our heads around it. We decided that if such robbers are raging in Estonia, they should see how one of their memorials gets blown up. We could have just doused the wooden thing with gasoline and set fire to it, but we wanted it to go with a bang." ] 02:32, 15 May 2007 (UTC) |
