Summary/Abstract: After "liberation" of the city of Senj and its districts on 9th April 1945 was formed the "national command". In brutal requital with all those who did not blindly believe in ideas of yugoslavianism and communism, a great number of people from Senj and its suburbs and some others who happened to found themselves there at that moment, were arrested and condemned. Although they mostly did not have other sins, almost all were executed by firing sqads.The same fate befell to those people from Senj who were condemned at Senj and killed at Gornja Kozica (the village less than ten kilometres on the north of Senj). The author deals with the tragic fate of those people on the basis of verbal evidences and according to the excerpts from fixed prejudications of the Military Court of the Yugoslav Army (Council at Sušak), which have been made public as enclosures of this article.
