Remains of Lithuanian partisan Ivanauskas found in Vilnius

Lab tests later confirmed the authenticity of Ivanauskas’ remains. He was executed by firing at the KGB prison in Vilnius in 1957. Only one other tomb separated Ivanauskas’ burial site from the grave of Ramanauskas-Vanagas.

The partisan was executed at the same place as Ramanauskas-Vanagas but two months earlier.
