The Banderites kidnapped and murdered 30‑year‑old Piotr Stopyra, who was going to the grain mill. The next day his wife and sister went looking for him. Both were murdered: Emilia Stopyra, 28, and Julia Stopyra, about 30. „Now I know that the perpetrators of the murdered people threw them into an old well, which was then filled in, that 30 people died during those days, including 5 people of Ukrainian nationality, that there were five children among the murdered, that apart from three Stopyrów, they were residents of the villages of Olchowiec, Suchodół and Tołszczowa”.

We get out of the car. The buildings of this bandit forester's lodge once stood right next to the road. Now there is an empty space, grass is pouring down on it, in which a lot of daisies are white. There are still fruit trees that used to surround the buildings of the forester's lodge. On the right side of the village, in thickets, there is a cellar ceiling covered with cobwebs. Down there, people were martyred, raped and cut to pieces. And their remains were thrown into a deep well that is buried today  […] I can see through the eyes of my imagination my poor Father, attached to a tree, how they cut off various parts of his body, tear out his eyes while his heart is still alive – what did he think when he lost his young life?

Myrosław Onyszkewycz „Orest Karat” gave the order: „I order you to purge your area immediately from the Polish element and Ukrainian–Bolshevik agents. The purge should be carried out in riverside hostels sparsely populated by Poles. To this end, create a militia near the area, composed of our members, whose task would be to eliminate the above–mentioned. Our larger hostels will be cleared of this element by our military units even in broad daylight  […] The clearing of the area must be completed before our Easter so that we can celebrate it without Poles. Remember that when the Bolsheviks find us with Poles in our territory, they will slaughter us all  […] Make a hard, ruthless fight with them. Not to spare anyone, even in mixed marriages. To take Lachs out of their houses, but The Ukrainians and children in these houses should not be liquidated  […] Get the gun. Death to the Poles. Stop, April 6, 1944. Glory to the heroes! Orest, Karat” This order is in the files of the investigation against Myroslav Onyshhevych.
