In April 1988 Ivan Hladush as a minister of Interior headed a government commission in regards to recent findings in woodlands around Darnytsia.[2] The commission came up with its report announcing that in Bykivnia were killed Soviet people by Nazi-Fascist invaders.[2] It was partially true as there was Darnytsia concentration camp in close vicinity.[2] Later another commission confirmed that Bykivnia was hiding much more.[2]
