Reports today to Warsaw newspapers say the man found murdered in Bialowierz Woods was Joseph Balachowicz, and not Bulak.
Joseph is the younger brother of the well-known insurrectionary general of White Russia, and had helped the latter in his struggle against the Soviet Power. Joseph Balachowicz is also known as a leader of pogrom bands, which operated in Minsk and Homel.
