	In 1943 the Germans started using agent-provocateur units composed of members of different police formations to combat the independent and communist underground movements in the territories of occupied Poland. Their members, pretending to be Polish or Soviet partisans, contacted local people and subsequently arrested or liquidated the most dangerous activists of the underground. There were several agent-provocateur units operating in the Kraków district of the General Government, and their most intense activity was reported in the Podhale region and in the vicinity of Miechów.
