Kovalevsky Maryan Antonovich
From the interned Polish citizens. Prisoner of Tomsk prison in 1941.
A native and resident of the town of Petroków in the Lodz Voivodeship (Poland), a Pole, a citizen of Poland, secondary education, was single, served under an officer in the Polish army.
He was arrested on October 29, 1939, while attempting to cross the Soviet border towards Hungary, from where he intended to “make his way to France to join the Polish legions being created there to continue the fight for the former gentry Poland.” He was taken to the prison in Stanislav, from where, in accordance with the directive of the People’s Commissar of Internal Affairs of the USSR Merkulov and the People’s Commissar of Internal Affairs of the Ukrainian SSR Serov dated October 4, 1939, he was to be sent as an internee to the Starobelsk camp in the Voroshilovgrad region for detention on a general basis as an internee.
The attack of Nazi Germany on the USSR and the Great Patriotic War that began on June 22, 1941 radically changed the situation of many Polish citizens exiled and under investigation and imprisoned on the territory of the USSR, turning them overnight from "enemies into allies" in the fight against the common enemy. During this period (July 20, 1941), Marian Kovalevsky was in prison No. 3 of the NKVD NSO (Tomsk).
Based on the Decree of the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet of the USSR of August 12, 1941, he was amnestied as a former Polish citizen. A certificate of his amnesty was issued on August 30, 1941. His subsequent fate has not been determined.
