general info

Płoska

Our neighbor – Anna – was a woman aged about 25–28 and until 1939 she worked in Mr. T.'s manor as a maid. When the Soviets entered our territory this year, T., fearing they would be deported to Siberia, left their property and fled to Lviv. In such a situation, Anna returned to her home in the hamlet of Werby in Breadowice, where she lived with her brother and sister, helping them to run a farm. At the end of December 1943 or at the beginning of January 1944, Anna told my mother that she had a Ukrainian cousin living in the village of Płoska, whose wife asked her for help in spinning the distaff. She added that she would be there longer than initially intended. After a few days, when she left Chlebowice Świrskie, her cousin came to her house, his name was Iwan, and he said, that Anna was abducted by the Bandera followers into the forest and has not returned so far. He doesn't know what happened to her. Then Anna's brother came to us and asked my father to go with him and help find her. He asked our neighbor Józef for the same. The next day, Józef harnessed the horses to the sledge and the three of us went to Płoski. There was a lot of snow while driving and it was extremely frosty. There, Anna's cousin showed the direction in which the Bandera followers went to the forest. Driving there, we found footprints, and at the edge of the forest we found Anna's body lying in the snow, covered with branches. Her body, half naked, was mutilated with blunt tools and her clothes were torn. After her body was brought home, she was buried in the cemetery in Chlebowice Świrskie. What was the motive behind this crime? – I can't judge. Maybe just because she was Polish.
