Аннотация
The article presents Janusz Molka, one of the most dangerous secret
collaborators of the Security Service (SB) in Tri-City, and reveals the full context of his
registration by the 2 rd Department of KWMO (Voivodeship Command of Citizens’
Militia, or communist-era police) in Gdańsk. J. Molka was noticed by the SB
already as a high school student. He was then active in youth circles associated
with academic chaplaincy, painting “hostile” slogans on walls. In that time he
met Arkadiusz Rybicki and Aleksander Hall. After August 1980, he actively joined
in creating the structures of “Solidarity” trade union in Gdańsk. After the
imposition of martial law, he handled the distribution of clandestine publications.
In February 1982, the 3 rd Department of KWMO in Gdańsk launched an
investigation code-named “Krokus”, due to the suspected use of the Tri-City Highland
Club, of which Molka was a member, for illegal activities. SB functionaries began
observing Molka. On 13 th May 1983 he was detained and recruited as a secret
collaborator of SB, under the pseudonym “Majewski”. Due to secrecy needs he
later changed his pseudonym to “C-5”, again to “Romkowski”. He was used to
infiltrate opposition structures in Tri-City. Until October 1984 he delivered over
80 written reports. His performance was cited as outstanding exampole of
cooperation. As a recognition of his merits, the SB command expressed consent to
his formal hiring on a secret position (December 1984). From then on, he used
the pseudonym “Nowak”. He maintained contacts with the underground
authorities of “Solidarity”, the Independent Students’ Association (NZS) of Gdańsk
University, he reached the persons exercising control over the transportation routes
of clandestine literature. His work was very much appreciated. In 1989 he was
transferred to the 3 rd Department of MSW (Ministry of Internal Affairs) in Warsaw.
In May 1990 he left the Security Service, without being subjected to the procedure
of verification.
Checking out Janusz Molka in IPN’s (Institute of National Remembrance’s)
auxiliary files, does not confirm his collaboration with the SB. Molka’s
registration card features the number of registration 47075. The registration book at that
number states the category OZ (protected person). However, another registration
number appears in Janusz Molka’s personal files (officer’s files) – 47080. At that
number, the registration book features notes about the TW (secret collaborator)
pseudonym “Majewski”. But, that number is written on the registration card of
Katarzyna A. An analysis of archives enables to assert that the mistake was
committed by a functionary of the 3 rd Department of KWMO in Gdańsk, on filling the
registration cards in the beginning of the registration process of Janusz Molka.
