I was among the other captives. In the afternoon of 29 July gendarmes took me from my home. I joined a great number of other people who were already standing in the square. Having herded a lot of people together, the Germans told them to lie face downwards. Twelve people were picked out of the whole group and taken aside. They were first ordered to dig a pit and then were shot to death. Along with a great number of other people I was taken to prison. After some time we were released home.
At this point the report was brought to a close and signed.
