I do not remember the exact date, but in October 1944 I was caught by the Gestapo and incarcerated in the camp which was situated in Bukówka, in the former barracks of the 4th Legions’ Infantry Regiment.

I stayed in this camp for one day only, as it was a transit camp.

There were over 3,000 people in this camp, only Poles who had been caught in round-ups. Nobody worked in that camp. We received unsweetened coffee and a loaf of bread for several people.

From that camp, people were deported for forced labor and to camps in Germany.

I do not know whether any executions were carried out in that camp. I do not know the surnames of the Germans who were on duty in that camp.

I do not know when the camp was closed as I had been deported to the camp in Landrow, from which I escaped and returned only in December 1944.

The report was read out.
