Polish translation of Michał Markowicz's account of the murder of Ukrainians in the village of Grąziowa  […] :
„After the front had passed in July 1944, Polish people's government began to be organized here. WOP was deployed in the Wojtkowa commune, and MO was established. Since then, repressions against the Ukrainian majority in our territory began. Arson began and, worst of all, innocent people were murdered.
The first victim was Stefan Sawka (about 45 years old). In the fall, WOP took him to Wojtkowo, and after 10 days he was found in post–German trenches. His arms and legs were broken, his legs tied behind his head, he lay covered with burnt spruce branches. Probably so bound, he died in the fire.
At that time, the madness of the army in Bircza, MO and ORMO was starting. Arson, looting and beatings began. Local people had to run away to the forest more and more often. These were simply provocations of the Polish authorities”.

The torturers set fire to the house, and when they are burning well — they threw the host alive into the fire.

Fragment of the NN 'Bukowy' protocol on the murder by Wojtkowo militiamen of 5 Ukrainians in Grąziowa:
„On March 22, 1945, in the evening, the reconnaissance reported that 38 Polish militia were driving from Wojtkowo towards Grąziowa or Jamna. On the same day, around 10 p.m. on the initiative of a colleague 'Potap', two self–defense swarms were summoned from the village of Jamna Dolna, in the number of 25 people, and the gendarmerie in the number of 15 people was put on alert  […] About 100 Poles participated in the action in the village of Grąziowa who brutally murdered 5 middle–aged men. They killed them with rifle butts. They threw four others alive into the fire of burning houses, and set 18 of them on fire during their retreat to Wojtkowo. Thrown into the fire, they escaped with burnt hair and mustaches”.

Petro Markovych — 21 years old, tortured to death. He was mentally ill, harmless, there was no point in killing him.
