Grigory Khasid, 78, the oldest member of Grodno's Jewish community speaks near a concrete block made from the broken headstones with Hebrew engravings, which were taken from old Jewish cemetery in 1963, when the Soviet authorities built a stadium over it, in the Belarus city of Grodno, 200 km (125 miles) northwest of Minsk, Wednesday, June 25, 2003. "My grandmother was buried in the cemetery, and the Soviet authorities never warned us that they would start constructing a stadium there and that we could move the bodies," said Khasid, who has had the block moved to another Jewish cemetery.
