Katyń. The name of this town was banned during the communist era in Poland. It appeared as an entry in only one edition of the PWN encyclopedia from 1958, where the Germans were blamed for the crimes. When, in 1989, one of the periodicals placed this word on the cover of its April issue in the context of National Remembrance Month, the publication provoked deep and loud outrage from Wiesław Górnicki, a publicist and official advisor to General Wojciech Jaruzelski. The name Katyń had been ruthlessly and consistently erased from the national memory.Born in Gunsan and After Seven Years, I Was Repatriated to Japan...

The murder of thousands of Polish officers and representatives of the elite by the Soviets was a planned action of extermination of that part of the society of the Second Republic, which formed the foundation of Polish statehood. For the Communists, it was a prelude to their subsequent seizure of power, which is why the Katyn lie became one of the cornerstones of the Polish People's Republic. From the beginning, however, Poles demanded that the truth about the crime be revealed.Kizu: The Untold Story of Unit 731
