Summary/Abstract: The article presents various forms of repression against villagers in the Kreishauptmannschaft Busko (Radom district). The inhabitants of the village suffered significant personal losses during World War II. The starting point is the description of the crimes committed by Wehrmacht soldiers in September 1939 on the inhabitants of villages in the pre-war Stopnica poviat. The author of this article devoted a lot of attention to the German repressions for failure to deliver regular deliveries of agricultural products. Other forms of German repressions were also discussed: the deportation of villagers to forced labor in the Third Reich, as well as repressions for helping Jews.
