Albrot Inessa (1933)

Albrot (Pevzner)Inessa Ilyinichna (Born 6 June 1933, Minsk, Belarus) – Educator.

In the documents submitted to the OVIR of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Latvian SSR for emigration permission, Inessa Albrot (for her own reasons) stated that her father, Ilya Klementyevich Pevzner (born 1899), went missing on the Eastern Front in 1942, and her mother, Asya Alexandrovna Pevzner (born 1900), died in a bombing raid in Minsk in 1941. However, according to a certificate issued by the head of OVIR, Comrade H. Kaja, in 1976, her parents were still alive and residing in Riga.

When Inessa Albrot sent a request to her father via the Riga First Notary Office, asking for his stance on her emigration to Israel, Ilya Klementyevich Pevzner responded negatively through the same office.
