德国检察机构正对一名105岁的老人展开调查,指控其在二战期间曾担任纳粹战俘营Stalag 326 VI K的看守,并在该营地多起谋杀案中充当帮凶1。这一战俘营位于德国西北部的Senne地区、距Dortmund不远,曾关押约18万至20万名苏联战俘1。营地内的苏联战俘因恶劣的生活条件和虐待而大量死亡1。
根据历史记录,1941年至1945年间进入纳粹德国的苏联战俘中,约三分之一曾经过这一营地1。而在整个二战期间,超过530万苏联红军士兵遭到德国俘虏,其中约半数丧生1。德国自1979年起对谋杀和谋杀帮凶案件实行无诉讼时效限制政策,这为起诉纳粹时代的罪行提供了法律依据1。
类似的历史清算仍在进行。此前一名99岁的前看守已于数月前去世,而一名101岁的集中营看守四年前因在Sachsenhausen集中营的谋杀帮凶罪被判处5年监禁1。
German prosecutors are investigating a 105-year-old man on suspicion of serving as a guard at Stalag 326 VI K, a Nazi prisoner of war camp, and allegedly complicity in multiple murders at the facility during World War II.1 The camp, located in Senne in northwestern Germany near Dortmund, held between 180,000 and 200,000 registered Soviet prisoners of war between 1941 and 1945, many of whom died due to harsh conditions and abuse.1
Germany has maintained a policy since 1979 of imposing no statute of limitations on murder and complicity in murder cases, enabling prosecutors to bring charges related to Nazi-era crimes regardless of how much time has elapsed.1 The investigation reflects ongoing efforts to hold accountable those involved in wartime atrocities, even in extreme old age. The case follows the recent death of a 99-year-old former guard previously investigated for similar crimes and a 101-year-old concentration camp guard who was sentenced to five years imprisonment for complicity in murders at Sachsenhausen four years ago.1
