Romuald Rajs, nom de guerre "Bury", was a Polish soldier and anti-communist insurgent. Rajs was a member of Home Army (AK) and National Military Union (NZW). In 1946 the unit under his command burned several Belarusian villages in the region of Białystok and massacred about 79 villagers. He was sentenced to death in a show trial held by the Polish communist government in 1949, charged with membership in delegalized NZW. Following the trial, he was executed in 1949.
