The History of the Anticommunist Resistence in Banat. The Organisation of Dr. Liviu Vuc (1948-1952)

Abstract

For many years, after World War II, the Banat region was a centre of armed resistance against communism. One of the organizations that fought against the communist authorities illustrated itself under the leadership of Dr. Liviu Vuc. The group was constituted in October 1948, and Iosif Hlobil, Virgil Atnagea, Anton Atnagea, Ştefan Drăgan, Ioan Beg were among its members. The main goal of the organization was the fight against communism. The majority of its members were formerly adherents of the so-called Legion of the Archangel Michael, a Romanian fascist party. Their main area of combat was Zorlenţu Mare. The group will be annihilated in several stages by repeated actions undertaken by Securitate troops. The last free member of the group, Ioan Beg, will be taken into custody only as late as 1958. The verdicts pronounced by the communist tribunals varied according to the "guilt" of each of the members of the group: capital punishment or years of hard detention.
