FILE - In this Wednesday, June 19, 2013 file photo, Stanislaw Banach, right, and his wife Genowefa, talk to The Associated Press in their farmyard near Chlaniow, Poland, about the attack on the village by the Nazi SS-led Ukrainian Self Defense Legion in 1944, in which Banach's father and 43 other villagers were killed. The Associated Press has uncovered testimony that says Michael Karkoc, a Minnesota man who was a Ukrainian Self Defense Legion company commander, ordered his men to attack the village, contradicting claims by the man's family that he was never at the scene of the civilian massacre. Judge Dariusz Abamowicz told the AP on Wednesday March 15, 2017, the regional court in Lublin has issued a warrant after concluding that there is “high probability” the suspect committed war crimes listed by the prosecutors.
