On 9 November 1944, my husband Bronisław Pytlas was shot by auxiliary military units accompanying the German troops, composed of former Soviet prisoners. He was captured at night as a partisan and shot at the road to Radoszyce, near Brody; his body was buried in Końskie. I know this from what my children told me, as I was in the Auschwitz camp at that time. He was badly beaten before being shot.

The report was read out.
