Excerpt from the interrogation of the Home Army member Jan Kołcz, about the murderer of the Ukrainian, Paweł Solarz:
„After the liberation of Poland, I continued to extend my activity in this organization [AK]. At the time of my disclosure, I only revealed my affiliation with the Home Army organization, and after the liberation only the attack on Solarz Paweł's house in the Widacz group was revealed. On the other hand, two other attacks in Hadle, Żuklin, and the murder of Solarz Paweł, which I personally carried out, concealed […]
I do not remember exactly the date, sometime in the spring of 1945, during the robbery of Solarz Paweł's house in the Widacz group, I, having a cut rifle from Matwiej Jan […] directed him to Solarz Paweł lying on the floor and shot him, killing him on the spot, then we all left with the stolen things […] There were about 15 people in this robbery with me”.
