“Were communist agents sent after you to Germany involved in this murder? — wondered editor Anita Gargas on Thursday, March 16’s episode of the “Investigative Magazine” broadcast. The investigative journalist presented the viewers with the backstage of the mysterious death of Fr. Franciszek Blachnicki.
The investigation into the death of Fr. Blachnicki
“The Gontarczyks blew up our whole printing house,” p. Franciszek Blachnicki, founder of the Light-Life Movement, lecturer at the Catholic University of Lublin, initiator of the Crusade for Human Liberation and founder of the Christian Service for the Liberation of Nations. A day later he was dead.
On March 14, at a press conference, Zbigniew Ziobro, Minister of Justice and Prosecutor General, together with his deputy and director of the Main Commission for the Prosecution of Crimes against the Polish Nation, Andrzej Pozorski, and the President of the Institute of National Remembrance , Dr. Karol Nawrocki reported that a “very meticulous investigation” shows that a pastor who, during the forced emigration in Carlsberg, rallied the Polish community and the democratic opposition of the time of the People’s Republic of Poland, was murdered by administering deadly toxins. If the official cause of death of Fr. Blachnicki was suspected of a pulmonary embolism, but in the years 2001-2005 the Institute of National Remembrance conducted an investigation that shed new light on the matter: it showed that the priest was under surveillance by the communist security services, and also suggested that the priest was poisoned.
“Miss” and “Yon”
When the prosecutor’s office and the Institute of National Remembrance confirmed that the death of Fr. Franciszek Blachnicki was poisoned, questions arose again about his last conversation with a married couple of SB agents: Jolanta and Andrzej Gontarczyk. On the day of his death, the priest summoned the Gontarczyks for a conversation, which – as the priest’s associates later recalled – was extremely turbulent. When he returned home a few hours later, he went into an unusually severe coughing fit, lost consciousness, and never recovered. The doctor pronounced him dead at 4:10 PM.
Although there was an investigation into the poisoning of Fr. Franciszek Blachnicki by the SB agents spying on him, the prosecutor’s office stopped them for lack of evidence. She returned to the business in 2020.
Three years ago, investigative journalist Anita Gargas pointed out that Jolanta Gontarczyk – TW “Panna”, who spoke to the priest with her husband Andrzej (TW “Yon”) on the day of his death, is an active activist of the left, pro-abortion, feminist movements and environmental support LGBT+ and works on many projects funded by the capital Warsaw. In the meantime, she divorced her husband and reverted to her maiden name: Lange.
Gontarczyk aka Lange and the town hall of the capital
Were communist agents sent after you to Germany who were involved in this murder? We asked this question 3 years ago. Just like the question: how Jolanta Gontarczyk vel Lange, from a communist intelligence agent, became an LGBT activist, for whom the Warsaw City Hall gives millions from taxpayers’ pockets
– Anita Gargas wondered last Thursday on the “Investigative Magazine” broadcast.
According to the findings of journalists, historians and communist opposition activists from the time of the People’s Republic of Poland, the Gontarczyk couple already cooperated with the security service in the 1970s. Their task was first to work out the Germans in Poland. They were then sent to West Germany to invade and disorganize the Polish community there. The central figure of Polish emigration in Germany was Fr. Franciszek Blachnicki, the founder of the Light-Life Movement, who for years did not believe that the Gontarczyks could cooperate with the SB.
The spy duo succeeded in their efforts to destabilize the Christian Service for the Liberation of Nations. As we learn from “Magazyn Śledczy”, after the return of the Gontarczyks to the People’s Republic of Poland, the SB generously rewarded its agents: a 150-meter apartment in the center of Warsaw and the amount of PLN 10,000. German marks as compensation for “lost” property in Germany. The couple told Radio Free Europe about their “difficult situation”.
Jolanta Lange did not answer the journalist’s questions
After 1989, Jolanta Gontarczyk joined the left. She became a councilor and then deputy marshal of the Mazowieckie Voivodeship. She belonged to the SLD and worked together with Danuta Waniek. In 2004, she worked at the Ministry of the Interior and Administration, where she worked on anti-corruption. The then president, Aleksander Kwaśniewski, awarded her the Silver Cross of Merit.
Gargas asked why Jolanta Gontarczyk’s political career has gained such a dizzying momentum despite her intense cooperation with the security service and why the Warsaw City Hall has been subsidizing the activities of her association “Pro Humanum” for years? The journalist cited the amounts that Trzaskowski had transferred to the left-wing organization of Jolanta Gontarczyk vel. Lange – only in 2020 it was more than PLN 1.2 million. The sum of all subsidies fluctuates around PLN 3 million.
The author of “Magazyn Śledczy” tried to contact the SB agent that Fr. Blachnicki on the day of his death. After failed attempts to talk, Lange promised to call Gargas himself and answer her questions. She didn’t.
