According to Joseph Berman , a Jewish man from Ventspils and a survivor of The Holocaust in Latvia , who was assigned to the work detail cleaning Seck 's automobile , Seck was closely associated with Rudolf Lange , the main SS leader in occupied Latvia . Seck made it a habit to meet , at the Šķirotava Railway Station , trains of Jews deported from Germany , Austria , or Czechoslovakia . Theoretically these Jews were to be sent to the Riga Ghetto or the Jungfernhof or Salaspils concentration camps , but usually this did not occur , as Seck would instead take them to Biķernieki or Rumbula forests , near Riga , and shoot them
