The communist regime after 1947 tried to divide the Lutheran community in Warmia and Mazury. This was to be achieved by arousing suspicion that the members of that Church were spies on behalf of various Western countries, especially the Scandinavian ones, as the Lutheran Church in Poland maintained vivid contacts with them. At the same time the Lutheran community was seen as pro-German and the clergy were accused of collaboration with the Germans in the times of World War II. They were blamed for the failure of the forced polonisation of the German population, which decided to stay in Poland after the war. In effect two Lutheran priests and several laymen were arrested. The authorities failed to prove the accusations of espionage and the priests and laymen were not sentenced, but they were not fully acquitted before 1957.

The article addresses the deportations of soldiers of the Polish Home Army, who were transported to the labor camps of the NKVD Nr 270 in the region of Borowicze, Novgorod County in November and December 1944 and returned to Poland in the spring of 1946. Aggressive behavior of the escorts, acute shortage of food and especially water, rationed in very sparse quantities during many days of the journey, lack of any information - such were the physical and mental oppressions which taken together were a foretoken of what might be expected at the unknown place of destination. This destination turned out to be the Jogla labor camp. A majority of the internees were Home Army privates from the Lublin area (the biggest groups came from the counties of Radzyn, Luków, Krasnystaw, Lubartów and the city of Lublin), Eastern-Warsaw and Rzeszów. The prisoners were detained in inhuman and climatically adverse conditions, in overcrowded barracks, received starvation food rations and were forced to do exhausting physical labor; there was a lack of work clothes and adequate shoes, and the sanitary conditions were fatal. Deaths were frequent also due to diseases such as: dystrophy, pneumonia, dysentery, lung tuberculosis and intestine inflammation. After their release from the camp and return to Poland, many of those Home Army soldiers experienced repressions at the hands of the 'people's authority' which was establishing itself in power. They were persecuted and treated as second rate citizens stigmatized with the 'Home Army brand'.

The article discusses methods used by the communist security service against people connected with the French Consulate at Szczecin in the 1950s. Criminal proceedings were implemented, repressions affecting a large number of people, most of whom had nothing at all to do with the case. The basic evidence, which was deemed to attest to their espionage activity, was that they pleaded guilty - an admittance coerced by tortures. In reality, the Robineau espionage network included merely several persons and its activity was in fact 'harmless', as it consisted in collecting information of no significance to Poland's defense or the citizens' security.
