On 14 October 1948 in Radom, the District Commission for the Investigation of German Crimes in Radom, this in the person of a member of the Commission, Deputy Prosecutor T.

I wasn’t an eyewitness to the execution of 30 Poles, transported from Radom prison in the spring of 1944, in the village of Gołębiów Wójtostwo. When I learned that the Germans were surrounding the military square, I fled to the city, for I feared a round-up. I received a communication from my wife, Stanisława, that there was no round-up, and that in actual fact the Germans had carried out an execution of Poles, upon learning which I returned home. Observing the road through shutter slits, I saw a pile of bodies, lit up by the headlights of a truck. There were two motor cars, and they left along the Warsaw road in the direction of Firlej. Neither the names of the victims, nor those of the perpetrators, are known to me.
