The trial of major Nazi war criminals at Nuremberg lasted from November 20, 1945 to October 1, 1946. Twelve of the 24 defendants were sentenced to death.
The last prosecutor of the Nuremberg Trials, Benjamin Ferenc, died at the age of 103. He was responsible for the conviction of 22 Nazi death squad commanders. The death of a man on Sunday, April 8, was reported by Ferenc’s son to NBC.
The Nuremberg Trials took place in Nuremberg after World War II and were a trial of war criminals from Nazi Germany.
Benjamin Ferenc was 27 years old when the process began. He then acted as a prosecutor in a separate trial of members of the so-called Einsatzgruppen, or SS units engaged in the mass extermination of people in the occupied territories of Europe and the USSR.
The TV channel indicates that at that time 22 people were involved in the case, who were found guilty of killing more than 1 million people. 13 defendants were sentenced to death by hanging.
Following the trial, Ferenc was put in charge of returning property taken by the Nazis to the owners or heirs, and also helped broker a Holocaust compensation agreement with the West German government.
He proposed the creation of an International Criminal Court and criticized Russia’s decision to send troops to Ukraine.
As you know, on March 17, the ICC issued an arrest warrant for Russian President Vladimir Putin and Children’s Ombudsman Maria Alekseevna Lvovo-Belova. They are suspected of involvement in the illegal deportation of Ukrainian children.
