In 1944, probably in January, the Polish village of Koniuchy was wiped out by partisans from the ,,Lithuanian brigade'', under the command of Jacob Penner and Shmuel Kaplinsky. The village was not fortified, and the villagers had only a few old rifles. Children, women and old men were killed in cold blood. A total of about 130 men were killed.

After the war, some of the partisans boasted of the crime (including Chaim Lazaar, Israel Weiss, and Rich Cohen). Nobody was ever charged for this crime.
