Czanyż
On the night of August 26–27, 1945, Kupiak and his gang attacked the village of Czanyż. 11 people were murdered there, among whom Kupiak personally murdered two women. The property of the murdered was plundered. Testimony of the witness Falińska Susabowska: „Before Kupiak escaped to Poland, when I was staying with him in Lviv, Kupiak's relative came and brought gold products, dollars, furs and many other valuable things that she kept for him. He took all of this with him when he fled abroad. In Wrocław, next to me, he sold one fur coat for PLN 10,000”. In October 1945, Kupiak, with the documents of an expatriate in the name of Władysław Brodziak, left for Poland, taking with him looted gold, dollars and other valuable property of the people he murdered. In May 1946, he fled from the Polish People's Republic to Czechoslovakia, and from there through Germany.
