Warsaw, 29 May 1946, Judge Halina Wereńko, delegated to the Commission for the Investigation of German Crimes, interviewed the person named below as a witness. Having advised the witness of the criminal liability for making false declarations, the judge swore the witness in accordance with Art. 109 of the Code of Criminal Procedure.
The witness testified as follows:
| Name and surname | Paweł Zielonka |
| Names of parents | Antoni and Anastazja née Krukolska |
| Date of birth | 10 April 1886 |
| Occupation | private in the Warsaw fire brigade |
| Education | can read and write, did not go to school |
| Place of residence | Wołomin, Kanałowa Street 12 |
| Religious affiliation | Roman Catholic |
| Criminal record | none |
My son, Zygmunt Marcin Zielonka (born 11 November 1920, a locksmith mechanic) was taken from home by the Gestapo during a big round-up in Wołomin on 6 November 1943.
I suppose that my son, without my knowledge, belonged to a secret organization fighting against the Germans, because people unknown to me used to visit him.
On 3 December 1943, as stated on a public notice, my son was executed on Puławska Street, next to the fire station.
In the period between his arrest and the execution, my son was in Pawiak prison, where I delivered food and clothes packages for him. Once, I had a short note from him, where he asked to send bedclothes. However, I had no information as to the charges brought against my son and on what basis.
My son’s friends’ names were also on the list: the Kościelski brothers, Wierzbicki, Zimny – all from Wołomin, and all, I suppose, members of an underground organization fighting the Germans.
The report was read out.
