The UPA, Ukrainian SS men from SS „Galizien–Hałyczyna” and Ukrainian peasants murdered 30 Poles, including a 14–month–old boy. Testimony of one of the inhabitants of Podkamień: „He testifies as follows: I know very well Czerniawski Władysław as well as his family. The father had a butcher's shop in Podkamień, county Brody. Czerniawski Władysław is of Ukrainian origin. He graduated from gymnasium in Brody, and then he graduated from university in Lviv. After the Germans entered in 1942, he was the organizer of a murderous Ukrainian gang. He organized this band with his father–in–law named Rajke, who lived in the Czernic hamlet, Antonówka farm, commune Podkamień, area Brody. I know that Czerniawski Władysław was the commander and judge of this gang. He himself issued death sentences to Poles together with his father–in–law Rajke, who was the prosecutor in this gang […] Then, at the end of February 1944, in the village of Pankowce, county 6 families were murdered in the same way. A similar fact took place in Szklana Huta, district of Brody, where the whole village was put into barns, and then the inhabitants of that village were burned alive. I learned about this fact from people from a given town called”.
