Konrad Willi Werner - unfortunately no informations about his duties and assignation or position in Warsaw, he was extradited to Poland by the British authorities in December 1947.

Here is the thread about Konrad Werner at the "The Phil Nix SS & Polizei section" of this forum (with two photos of him taken in Polish captivity):
