General Emil Fieldorf's Remains Located

The Institute of National Remembrance (IPN) located remains and burial place of General Emil Fieldorf, nom de guerre "Nile" who was murdered in 1953 by the communist henchmen form the UB (Polish secret police). General Fieldorf, "Nile" was the Deputy Commander-in-Chief of the Polish Home Army (pol. Armia Krajowa - abr. AK) during Second World War.

- I am 84 years old and I spent my entire life trying to locate remains of my father. I am afraid that I will not live long enough to find them - told "Poland" Maria Fieldorf-Czarska, the daughter of General "Nil".

However, Jacek Pawlowicz reassures that the exhumation will begin as early as September or November of this year. [...] - The remains of the General will be easy to identify - says Pawlowicz - because he was the only one from among those executed who was not killed with a shot to the head (a common execution method employed by the secret police and perfected during the Katyn masacre). In order to humiliate him, the murderers from the UB hang General "Nil" as if he was a common criminal.

A moving documentary dedicated to the Mrs. Fieldorf's nearly 50-years-long pursuit to bring to justice individuals responsible for the murder of her father will be republished on our website with English subtitles.
