16 November 1948, Municipal Court in Zwoleń.
A case from letters rogatory of the District Commission for the Investigation of German Crimes with its seat in Radom.
In the presence of: Judge Ławicki, reporter Urbanek.
Witnesses put in an appearance in court, were notified, and [sworn] under oath: 1. Kazimierz Gajda, 21, Józef’s son, farmer,
2. Władysław Gajda, 40, Jan’s son, farmer,
3. Władysław Dygas, 53, Jan’s son, farmer.
[We] hereby testify in unison that on 12 June 1943, the Germans surrounded Franciszek Warchoł’s house and, probably because he did not want to open the door, they started to shoot a machine gun inside the house through the window. At that time, Franciszek Warchoł opened the door and then the Germans wounded him severely and killed his son Jan and daughter Julianna on the spot, when they were trying to escape through the window. It all happened in the Policzna colony. At the same time in the village of Policzna, the Germans also shot people, but we were not there anymore.
After some time, the Germans returned to the Warchoł’s house and finished Franciszek Warchoł off, killed his second daughter, Stanisława, and his wife Katarzyna, and burnt the whole Warchoł’s farm down with the corpses of all the murdered. What was the reason of this, we do not know. Apart from the Warchoł family, Germans murdered 24 more people, men and women.
