After seeing that he wouldn't make any progress with R’ Asher, the interrogator began writing up a long report and said to the officer in charge, “I can't work with such a person.” In the end, for refusing to Moser on his fellow Chassidim, R’ Asher was sentenced to ten years of exile and hard labor in Siberia. B"H ‫ספורי‬ "YOU ARE A DOG, SCHNEERSON IS A ‫חסידים‬ TZADIK!" As told by R’ Asher Sossonko A”H: After WW2, Russia negotiated with Poland to arrange the safe return of those Polish citizens who had fled the Nazis Y"S during the war. Thursday night, the night before he was arrested, R’ Asher had a strange dream in which he was arrested and placed under heavy guard, forced to wait until sometime later another guard came and freed him through a second door. As he was contemplating it, even though he was sure it was just a meaningless nightmare, R’ Asher recited the special prayer a Jew says when he has an unpleasant dream: ‫( חלמא טבא חזיתא‬you dreamt a good dream). ‫לע"נ הרה"ת ר' יוסף יצחק ב"ר אשר ז"ל‬ B"H ‫ספורי‬ "YOU ARE A DOG, SCHNEERSON IS A ‫חסידים‬ TZADIK!" R’ Asher replied that there is no such person, since Rabbi Schneerson is currently in New York. “Very well, I’ll write in your report that you spoke against the Russian government, that you said that it is impossible to live in Russia and you must travel to Israel,” threatened the interrogator. Just as R’ Asher finished Davening this special Tefillah, an officer stopped him, asked for his papers, and brought him to KGB headquarters in the infamous ‘black car’ which was used for prisoners. After a pause, during which he gathered himself once more, the interrogator reasoned that even if there was no Tzadik in Russia, there had to be a place in which the Chassidim gathered together. As the interrogation continued and R’ Asher did not answer to the KGB’s satisfaction, the officer grew more and more furious, until in a fit of rage, he threw off R’ Asher’s hat. “You should know that since Schneerson left Russia, you, as his agent, are standing in judgment in his place,” barked the interrogator, but R’ Asher did not respond.
