A 97-year-old woman has been jailed for complicity in the killing of more than 10,000 people in Hitler’s Nazi concentration camps.
The German Nazi government led by Hitler opened a military camp in the small town of Auschwitz in the southern part of Poland they occupied during World War II. They used it to treat and torture the enemy nationals they captured as slaves.
Due to Germany’s dominance in the war, they gassed all the Jews they arrested in European countries. Beatings, tortures, shootings, killings with sharp weapons took place without exception. Known as the black pages of history.
Trials and convictions for Nazi concentration camp massacres have been held from time to time in Germany. In that regard, 97-year-old Imgard Bueschner, who worked as a typewriter in the Nazi concentration camp from 1943 to 1945, was charged with complicity in 10,000 murders there.
In this situation, the court sentenced Imgard Bueschner to two years in prison. Imgard was in his teens when he worked at the camp, meaning he was given a lesser prison term under the Juvenile Sentencing Act.
