An unusual libel case in Poland pertaining to the Holocaust has the potential to affect both the future of academic research as well as how the country comes to grips with its treatment of Jews during WWII, advocates say.

Peter Jennings joined Wiesel on the 40th anniversary of the Holocaust camp’s liberation.LONDON and MOSCOW --

At the center of the case is the now-deceased Edward Malinowski, the village elder of Malinowo, who in WWII both allegedly robbed and saved a Jewish woman, Estera Siemiatycka, by finding her work as a forced laborer. Had the Nazi authorities known she was Jewish, she would have been executed. "It was this source that I found most reliable for reconstructing the story of Estera Siemiatycka," Engelking told ABC News.

"On the surface, the civil litigation at the heart of this story involves an old lady wanting to defend the good name of her family, allegedly tarnished by the authors of a book 'Night Without End,'" Grabowski told ABC News.

"This private lawsuit's intention is to protect the memory of Ms. Leszczyńska's ancestor — the deceased Edward Malinowski, a hero, who rescued Jews during the war,” he told ABC News.

The facts are here ; Poland actively participated to this strategy.

Why the need to censor valid research unless there is something to hide? What is the Polish Govt afraid that the research will uncover? We need to get to the truth so it never happens again.

Therefore, actual people who helped Jews (death penalty for the families who provided food, water, or shelter to Jews) can be described as collaborators responsible for the 'heinous crimes against Jews' because 'renowned historians' made these mistakes.

It`s appears has done no fact checking & is writing propaganda

leftboomer German Nazi`s in occupied Poland are rounding up Jews to exterminate This Pole, Edward Malinowski actually saved her life however he could Now Jewish holocaust researchers worried about money That`s how this reads Look closely at Israel`s occupation of Palestine for comparison

If they were true and honest historians, they would easily prove their conclusions and accusations. Otherwise, everything suggest so far, they are just hatefull polonophobes making their careers on Holocaust lies. Hopefully the case will cool them down a bit. Ojdadana
