'''Pavol
On [[April 28]], [[1950]], the Communist state outlawed the [[Eastern Catholic Churches|Greek-Catholic Church]] and Bishop Pavol was incarcerated. In January 1951 he was convicted on trumped-up charges of treason. Abused in multiple prisons, he remained faithful, praying and saying [[Mass]] in secret. He was eventually given the offer to be released on the condition that he assume the position of the [[patriarch]] of the [[Orthodox church]] in [[Czechoslovakia]]. He rejected the offer as an infidelity to the Pope and the faithful. He continued to be inprisoned and to suffer mistreatment, dying in a prison hospital on his birthday in 1960. ▼
