That's because the correct name of the town, where the concentration camp where this is reported to have occurred was located, is Ostashkov. Sources, and indeed Wikipedia, discuss it as an addendum to the Katyn massacre. But obviously this is a mis-spelling of Ostashkov that, since it happened once to the extent that someone attempted to start an article at the title, should be a prophylactic redirect to the town.
