Kozlovsky Frantisek Edwardovich

Definition:

From the interned Polish citizens. Prisoner of Tomsk prison in 1941.

Years of life: 1898-?
Reproduction methods:

Born in 1898 in Tarnow, Krakow Voivodeship (Poland), Pole, citizen of Poland, secondary education, family man, second lieutenant in the Polish Army Reserve. Worked as a cashier at a savings bank in Krakow. After the military actions, he came to Lvov.

He was arrested on October 15, 1939, while attempting to cross the Soviet border towards Hungary. He was taken to the Stanislavov prison, from where, in accordance with the directive of the USSR People's Commissar of Internal Affairs 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. He was held in the NKVD prison in Nikolaev. On April 4, 1941, the investigation case against Kozlovsky was sent for consideration to the Special Conference of the NKVD of the USSR.

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. From July 20, 1941, Franciszek Kozlowski was in prison No. 3 of the NKVD NSO in the city of 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. His further fate has not been established.
