While i had no doubt from begining that whatever happened in germany was organised by Beria led NVKD
Few of my friends on this forum disagreed with this and argued that it was work of vengeful individuals and not a policy of soviet high command
Here i quoting a reference from letter by soviet soldier Yuri Koriakin written on March 3, 1945 -
Hello dear brother,
It's nice to get a good letter from Moscow. You've embarked on a large undertaking, with the duodenum, watch that you don't miss. I have frightfully many news, can't possibly describe everything, and there's no time besides, I'll tell when I come back.
With each passing day we are moving deeper into Germany. I don't know exactly where I'm located, but it's somewhere near the Baltic coast, Stettin (Szczecin) is on our way and some other city closer to here.
There's almost no population left in the local towns and cities, but lots of goods. Chickens and geese, rabbits and goats, pigs and sheep, cows and horses amble around without owners. Cows moo, they have to be milked, but who needs them? And how many foods we eat - everything, starting with potatoes and ending with chocolate, coffee, and piglets. And how much stuff there is around. It can't be counted. Yes. The Germans were well off. Well, and those who remained get some, the German girls, and all the fraus, and men. We don't act considerately. Can't write everything. You've probably heard. *
Further Yuri Koriakin explains the things he couldn;t write due to fear of beria led NVKD whichis emphasised in bold above
Here the fact is that Company Politruk(Political officer) was always a NVKD men.Before crossing the German border in the region of Bromberg (Bydgoszcz) .)the company politruk (political officer - trans) came to a meeting and announced the following: "We are entering German territory. We know that Germans brought uncounted evils to our land, that is why we are entering their territory, to punish the Germans. I ask you not to make contact with the local population, so that you wouldn't have any troubles, and not to walk alone. Well, and concerning the woman question, you can treat the German women rather freely, but so it wouldn't look organized
Again the NVKD official permits red army soldiers to commit crimes against german civilians but asks them to do such a ways that it does appears as organised one .

I consider this letter and its explantion of circumstancial evidence for my statement that soviet atrocities on german civilians were organised and pre-planned by Beria led NVKD
We have no choice but to rely on eye-witness and cirumstancial evidence as communist government of east germany and soviet union destroyed all the proof regarding it.
