There are suspicions that the two who allegedly took their own lives may have died as a result of torture during the in- vestigation—or, possibly, may have been murdered by the in- - terrogators. The two alleged suicides were - named as Yacov Nukhimovitch and Nochum Klarfeld. Those sentenced to death were Falik Fuks and Benjamin Gulko.
