Suchowola

The Banderites robbed and burned Polish farms and murdered 48 Poles. „On January 17, 1944 the Bandera followers murdered 47 people in Suchowola. They threw both the dead and the living bound into the fire of burning Polish buildings. This is what they did with Stanisława Inglot and Antoni Smoliński from Zalesie  […] Stefania Molińska, a very pretty girl, left for Brody, but that day she came home in Zalesie to take some things. She was an ardent patriot and more than once clashed with Ukrainian nationalists who remembered her well. That day the Bandera followers caught her, took her to the forest, beat her there, finally cut off her hands, pulled out her tongue and buried her alive in the ground. In such a state, in suffering,” was slowly dying.

Antoni Morawski told him that the Banderites were very cruel. They threw living people into the burning buildings, cut the throats of others, and raped his sister Stefania Molińska before murdering, tearing out his tongue, chopped off his hands, and then buried half in the ground.
