According to data from the Slovenian Romani Union, seventeen Romani people from Prekmurje were sent to Hungarian camps. The names of six Romani people who were shot as "talcis" on 27 February 1945 in Turnišče are also mentioned. Ivan Jerič, who eventually succeeded in having them confess before their death, described the event as follows: Three days after his arrival in Turnišče, the soldiers surrounded six young Romani people in a forest clearing, who did not respond to the call to arms. They were taken to Turnišče. The commander condemned all six to death. He called the district registrar to collect data for the death register. The registrar's wife came to tell me that all were condemned to death.
