The Ukrainians murdered a Polish family of four, three brothers: Bolesław (6), Mieczysław (10), Zbigniew (16) and their father Michał Dorociak. According to the testimony of an eyewitness Katarzyna Pusiarska, the boys were questioned about their parents and then shot. The father was found by the Bandera followers in the attic and also shot. The mother was then in Przemyśl.

The UPA massacred a 4–person Polish family of teachers named Sugier: parents and 2 sons: „The bodies of the victims, Jan Sugier, his wife Aniela and sons Zbigniew and Mieczysław were found in the basement. They were dragged there after being tortured in an apartment where the floor and walls were splattered with blood. They were probably all in agony when they were dragged into the basement. In the basement, a terrible scene of sexual orgy was formed from them, Zbigniew's genitals were cut off and they were inserted into his mother's mouth. Zbigniew's mother's breast was cut off, and the mouth of her husband, Jan”, was placed on the other breast.

Among those cruelly murdered in Sufczyn there is also the Sugier family, a couple of teachers from Sufczyna and their two sons. They died in their own home in January 1945. The bodies of Jan's father and Zbigniew's son were in the basement. Mother Aniela and Mieczysław lay naked in a fake incest in one of the rooms. Their second son's birth was cut off. Zbyszek managed to wrap his shirt around his crotch, it was covered in blood, he must have suffered a lot before he died – recalls Anna Piwowarczyk, a 92‑year‑old resident of Bircza, who was a neighbor of the Sugier family in her youth. All these victims were buried in Bircza.
