Tomasz Dąbal (Polish pronunciation: [ˈtɔmaʂ ˈdɔmbal]; 29 December 1890 - 21 August 1937) was a Polish communist activist.
Life
In 1909-1914, he studied law in Vienna and medicine in Kraków, and he joined the Polish Peasant Party (1911).
In 1917, he was a member of the Polish Legions in World War I. With Eugene Perch, he was founder of the Republic of Tarnobrzeg. He was a politician in the PSL, deputy to Polish Sejm (1918-1921).
He eventually joined the Polish Communist Party (in 1920), for which in 1921 he was accused of subversive activities, stripped of his immunity as a member of the parliament and in 1923 extradited to the Soviet Union. There he continued his career as a communist activist, particularly in the Polish Autonomous District "Marchlewszczyzna", until - like most of the Polish communist activists in the Soviet Union - he was arrested and executed during the Great Purge. He was exonerated in 1956.
