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.

The remaining 75‑year‑old mother (Tekla Grubizna) waited for her son (Karol Grubizna, 34) to return from the army, other Poles left for Poland. When he returned that same day with bundles they went to Buczacz. On the outskirts of the village, they were stopped by „Ukrainian insurgents” and murdered: they stripped the son from his underwear uniform, tied his hands and feet with barbed wire, placed them on the door stuck up with sharp nails and trampled on his body in front of his mother until he died, then they murdered the mother.

Józef Skotnicki returned from forced labor in Germany, but the Poles had already left for the Regained Territories. „Ukrainian rebels” took him to the Stypa River, took him apart and smashed him with shovels, and then buried him shallowly in the ground. When he regained consciousness, he dug up and after a few hours he reached Podzameczek. He passed out near his friends' house, but his hostess found him. He was taken to the hospital in Buczacz, where he regained consciousness after a few days and revealed that the perpetrators were Ukrainians, his school friends. After five days, two UPA tried to kill him in the hospital, but the staff scared them away. He was taken to the military hospital in Czortków, where he was treated for 2 months.
