Abstract
Icek Lerner of Komarówka Podlaska wanted to bring about the conviction of the perpetrators of the murder of six members of his immediate family in the village of Przegaliny near Komarówka, and his partner Estera Rybak (and formerly her daughter) in Warsaw. He identified the murderers and demonstrated the course of events. His efforts proved fruitless. Years later, the case was taken up by his son, Rony Lerner, also to no avail. The article, a case study of survivor Icek Lerner’s attempt to seek justice also addresses, using his later descriptions of his experiences during the Holocaust as an example, the question of the reliability of testimonies given many years after the fact.
