Abstract
In late November 1943, in Rędziny-Borek near Miechów, a group of armed men, barged into the house of a local peasant, and from a hidden chamber dragged out six Jews hiding there. Then, having searched them thoroughly, and having taken away their valuables and cash, the victims were lined up against the wall and – one by one—shot in the back of the head. The crime, however, was not perpetrated by bandits of some unidentified “forest people”, but a carefully planned ( and authorized by the District command) military operation of the Miechów Home Army structures
