Our delegation in Siemianówka informs us that on April 2, 1944, an unknown individual in adolescence, under the guise of looking for his son, went to the apartment of N. Homyniuk, an official at the railway station in Ostrów. Unable to wait for the arrival of the son, he lured N. Homyniuk out of the house and shot him on the way.
