With regard to the present matter, I know the following: I was an eyewitness to the late Tadeusz Pęczak from Kazimierza Wielka being killed by the criminal police, who were at the service of the Germans. A worker at the “ Łubna” Sugar Factory in Kazimierza Wielka, the late Pęczak was killed on 19 December 1943 within the premises of the “ Łubna” Sugar Factory. At that the report was concluded and signed after being read out.
