On 14 October 1942, on the gallows set up near the Arms Factory in Radom, the Germans executed my brother-in-law, Jan Kurys, born on 6 March 1910, an employee at the Arms Factory in Radom.

I wasn’t present at the execution site near the Arms Factory. Nor was I present at the execution site by the Kielce road, where Stanisław Kołkiewicz was hanged. I arrived there one day after the execution, when the bodies had already been removed. I don’t know where the bodies were buried and I don’t know why these people were executed. Nor did I see the board set up next to the gallows.

Having been shown photographs of the people executed by the Kielce road and near the Arms Factory in Radom, the witness testified as follows: In the photographs presented, I can’t recognize either Kurys or Kołkiewicz.

The report was read out.
