Upowiec murdered the Szykmany gamekeepers, Hryniawa forest districts, county Kosów Huculski named Jach: „In the first quarter of 1944 the gamekeeper Jach, warned by the local Hucul, avoided arrest by the Germans. He ran away with his family at night, crossing the Hungarian border in a sleigh. Unfortunately, in Hungary he was recognized by one of the UPA members and shot in front of his wife and son. Jachowa and her child managed to travel from Hungary via Austria to Przeworsk, where she lived after the war. She died in January 1982”.
