Post by ansata1976 » 24 Feb 2015, 22:44

I am interested in more information about some trials in Gdansk:

Trial Gdansk (Koszalin) 1946:

Otto Lüdtke death sentence
sentenced together with:
Walter Ristow 7 years imprisonment
Ernst Mielke 5 years imprisonment
Willi Teske 5 years imprisonment
Was the death sentence carried out? I am interested as well in the date of birth of Lüdtke. What was their crime?


Trial Gdansk (Koscierzyn) 1945:

Ewald Dobrick death sentence (for mistreatment of Poles)
Max Gronert death sentence (for mistreatment of Poles)
Was the sentence carried out? I am interested as well in the date of birth of Dobrick and Gronert.

What was the sentence of:
Trial Gdansk 1946:

Friedrich Pommerening 1903 sentence???
Otto Grasse sentence???
