of
the
Ukrainians
in
Slovakia,
Vasyl
Kapishovskyi.
The
author
outlines
that
Kapishovskyi

studied
in
Uzhhorod
and
later
started
working
as
a
teacher
in
the
Carpathian
part
of
Ukraine.

When
the
Hungarians
occupied
this
territory
in
1939,
Kapishovskyi
decided
to
move
to
the
USSR.

While
living
in
Moscow,
he
was
trained
as
an
intelligence
agent.
Further
on
in
1941
Kapishovskyi

was
sent
and
mobilized
to
the
Slovak
anti-fascist
army.
After
landing
on
the
territory
of
Slovakia,

he
was
immediately
caught
and
questioned
by
the
Gestapo.
Trying
to
save
his
life,
Kapishovskyi

revealed
the
secret
information
about
intelligence
agents.
For
this
act
he
was
about
to
face
the

death

penalty, but the Slovak court sentenced him only to fifteen years in prison. He survived
his imprisonment and after the war became the head of the Communist Party in Medzhylabirtsi.
Moreover, Kapishovskyi was elected the member of the Czech and the Slovak parliaments, as well
as the member of the Ukrainian People’s Council and the head of the Education Department in
Bratislava (1946-1948). The author of the article underlines that Kapishovskyi was again about
to face the death penalty in 1952 when he was accused of the Ukrainian bourgeois nationalism.
Nevertheless, he was found not guilty and got back to his responsibilities. Therefore, the article
outlines only most important facts of Vasyl Kapishovskyi’s life and activity. The author underlines
that further information can be found in his book entitled The Faithful Son of Priashiv published
in Uzhhorod in 2014)
