The Warsaw branch of Polish Institute Of National Remembrance (IPN) started an investigation on the crime in November 1992 . The investigation was subsequently suspended between 1997 and 2001 and is now conducted by Kraków branch of the Institute. According to the investigation, the people in the village were murdered by police units of Ukrainian Division "Galizien" of Waffen-SS . Several Ukrainian historians deny the role of the Ukrainian SS in the killings, and attribute them entirely to German SS units. On February 28 1989 a memorial was built on the place of the previous village but was soon destroyed . A new monument commemorating the victims was erected in 2005. SEE ALSO REFERENCES |
