A Historic Revelation

    For over 80 years, the death of Polish Prime Minister and Commander‑in‑Chief General Władysław Sikorski was dismissed as an accident. This book proves otherwise: it was a meticulously planned assassination by sabotage.

Now revised with a newly uncovered photograph placing Bronisław Urbanski beside Sikorski’s body in 1943—the “smoking gun”—and the revelation of the man who gave the secret signal to kill him.

​

** IPN Criminal Investigation of General Wladyslaw Sikorski 1943 **

​

Latest Developments – 19th December 2025

• The Formal Inquiry: Since July 2, 2025, the IPN Chief Prosecutor’s office has been officially investigating the 1943 Gibraltar crash of Liberator AL523 as a criminal assassination by sabotage, specifically examining new evidence presented by author Peter Urbanski.

• International Cooperation: On September 10, 2025, the case reached the highest diplomatic levels. A Mutual Legal Assistance (MLA) request is now active, marking a formal collaboration between the Polish State and Australian authorities.

• Australian Legal Support: Under the Mutual Assistance in Criminal Matters Act 1987, the Australian government is now legally assisting Poland. This cooperation is mandatory because the IPN has officially classified the Prime Minister's death as a criminal act.

• Gathering of Evidence: The Australian Attorney-General is currently facilitating the formal collection of witness statements from Peter Urbanski, as well as the legal verification of his original documents and photographs. This formal "government-to-government" channel ensures all evidence remains legally admissible in a Polish court.

• Timeline: Due to the complexity and high stakes of this investigation, the legal process is expected to take up to two years to ensure absolute historical and legal accuracy.

​

New Recent Discoveries:

• The Sikorski Coffin Photograph: The discovery of archival film—and specifically a still photograph extracted from it—depicting the body of General Władysław Sikorski in his coffin upon its return to England, has yielded a significant finding. Six bodyguards are seen surrounding the coffin. We can positively identify Bronisław as one of the six bodyguards. The individual standing immediately behind him appears to be his partner, Teddy. Neither using their real names nor correct Military Rank. The 'smoking gun' literally has been found.

• The Christine Granville Connection: The relationship between Bronisław and Special Operations Executive (SOE) agent Christine Granville (born Maria 'Krystyna' Skarbek, 1908) was more complex than previously understood. Beyond being his lover and a director in the British War Office, Christine Granville was, in fact, Bronisław’s relative. This familial connection is documented in not one but a few directions on various family trees to her and even his cousin, Gustaw Gettlich her first husband. The two maintained a close association for decades. This discovery was verified on 12/12/2025.

• The man who actually sent the secret signal to Bronislaw is now revealed. The man who launched him into action is now believed to have been discovered.
   

What You’ll Discover (in the book)

• Espionage & Identity – The double life of Bronisław Urbanski: spy, assassin, devout Catholic. The psychological toll of living in permanent disguise, where hiding well-meant surviving.

• Assassination & Sabotage – The downing of Flight AL523, revealed through forensic crash analysis, eyewitness accounts, and Bronisław’s own words. The chilling image of him standing guard by Sikorski’s coffin—exactly as he once described to his son.

• Geopolitical Intrigue – Poland, Britain, and the Soviet Union locked in a dangerous triangle, with MI6 and resistance groups pulling strings in the shadows.

• How the sabotage was engineered—and the role of the operative who gave the final signal.

• Why political alliances, wartime betrayals, and high‑level complicity ensured the truth stayed buried.

• The hidden life of the man whose espionage skills inspired Ian Fleming in creating James Bond.
