SLAGTER
VAN DER WAALS @ DE WILDE @ ANTON, Haupt V-Mann of SCHREIEDER in The Hague.
VAN DER REIJDEN.
To the best of GISKES' memory VAN DER REIJDEN was arrested in January 1942. GISKES saw him in the SD prison in Scheveningen, probably in January. SCHREIEDER was present and the Leiter III of the Sipo, at that time probably a certain WOLFF. GISKES knows that already at that time when he first saw VAN DER REIJDENthe Funk Abwehr was in possession of the former's signal plan. He does not know how this was obtained from VAN DER REIJDEN. GISKES heard at this interview that VAN DER REIJDEN was in toch with a doctor in Wassenaar who was already known to the Sipo. The doctor in question (Krediet) was eventually arrested by the Sipo. GISKES cannot remember his name. The whole affair was handled by the Sipo but GISKES had the impression that VAN DER REIJDEN "war nicht sehr hart". He remembers also vaguely that some woman with children, possibly VAN DER REIJDEN's wife, was mixed up in the affair. GISKES thinks that the Sipo knew so much about his contacts that they were in a position to put pressure on him.
SLOOP.
Never seen by GISKES. Arrested on 16th March 1942 by the SD in Hilversum in the NSF, because he was building a radioset.
