In Wzdół-Rządowy, on 24 April 1948, at 4 PM, I, Corporal Kazimierz Kraska from the Citizens’ Militia station in Bodzentyn, acting pursuant to Article 20 of the provisions introducing the Code of Criminal Procedure, by the order of the present vice-prosecutor of the Prosecutor’s Office of the District Court in Kielce, issued on 20 March 1948 (LŻN 69/47) on the basis of Article 20 of the provisions introducing the Code of Criminal Procedure, while observing the formalities listed in Articles 235–240, 258, and 259 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, in the presence of the witness Stanisław Matysek, militia officer, residing at the Citizens’ Militia post in Bodzentyn, whom I have instructed of the obligation to certify the compliance of the Protocol with the course of procedure by signing, heard the person named below as a witness. Having been advised about the right to refuse to testify for reasons mentioned in Article 104 of the Code of Criminal Procedure [and about] the liability for making false declarations in accordance with Article 140 of the Penal Code, the witness stated:
| Name and surname | Jan Sikora |

Regarding the present case, I have the following knowledge. In 1943, in April, the Gestapo officers from Końskie arrived with a civilian. This civilian stayed the winter at the Boczarskis’, Furmańczyks’ and Łubek’s. He was a partisan, so the Germans captured him near Końskie, [and] when they brought him, he showed them where he was staying. The Gestapo men took the above-mentioned families with the children, brought them out to Wzdół Rządowy, and shot them there in Wincentego Ledwójcika square.
Overall, [together] with the children, 18 people were shot, including one man from Bodzentyn captured on the way, and one man from Klonów, Bodzentyn commune. The corpses of the executed victims are buried at the local cemetery in Wzdół Rządowy and they still rest there today.
I conclude my testimony and read it out before signing.
