Martyr Prostrate (Worshiper)

They had fastened our hands by a telephone wire. We were 12 people who had been imprisoned in a little basement; 4 days passed and we left thirsty and hungry. At 9:00 o'clock at night, we were praying vespers, when some drunken officers entered the basement and attacked a captive who was prostrating. One of them jumped with two feet on this brother's head. The others also attacked him savagely. That worshiper of God had been passed out when they pushed him down the stairs. A few minutes later, he martyrized.
