- 1 page, double sided. Folded once horizontally and vertically. Document issued in Ixelles by the Public Safety Department of the Justice Ministry.. It states that Otto Bondy must leave Belgium before June 15, 1939. If found in the country after this date, he risks imprisonment. He is not authorized to settle in Belgium and must emigrate. Square b&w photograph of Otto Bondy is affixed to upper-right corner of document with 4 grommets (one in each corner). Underneath the photo, text states that the document is not valid without a stamped photograph, and that the subject must hold a passport or other identification document with a stamped photograph. Inscription "Ci dél" has been scrawled at bottom right, under the signature, in red pencil. There is a signed notice on back, dated June 28, 1939 that the deadline has been delayed until September 30, 1939, referring to a letter dated June 21, 1939. A second signed notice dated September 21, 1939 appears directly underneath, stating further delay until December 31, 1939. Narrative: Otto Bondy was the father of the donor, Walter Absil. He was born in Vienna, Austria on January 1, 1897, and fled to Belgium with his family in 1938. He was deported from the Malines (Melechen) transit camp in Belgium to Auschwitz in September 1943, where he was murdered.
