My uncle was approached by the Romanian KGB to be an informant against the Seventh-day Adventist Church. He refused and paid a large sum of money to someone who lived on the border of Romania and Yugoslavia to help him escape. The plan involved swimming across the Danube River during midnight guard shifts, risking life from propellers if caught.
