The Prosecutor General's Office of the Russian Federation seeks recognition of the actions of the Nazis in the Rostov region as genocide

59

Fulfilling the order of the General Prosecutor's Office of the Russian Federation, prosecutors of the Rostov region appealed to the local regional court with a statement regarding the crimes of the German invaders in the cities of Salsk and Millerovo during the Great Patriotic War. The Prosecutor General's Office of the Russian Federation seeks recognition of the actions of the Nazis in the Rostov region as genocide.

This was reported today by the press service of the department.



Before that, the atrocities of the invaders were thoroughly investigated by representatives of the prosecutor's office, the Investigative Committee of the Russian Federation and the FSB. They pulled up all available archives, studying documents relating to the mass executions of civilians in the Rostov region and Soviet prisoners of war.

In the course of investigative measures, it was possible to establish that special forces were operating in Salsk and Millerovo, performing punitive functions. From 1941 to 1943, at least 126 thousand people were killed here. They were tortured, shot, and then thrown into pits that served as mass graves.

Prosecutor General of the Russian Federation Igor Krasnov instructed the prosecutor's office of the Rostov region to file an application with the court.

Earlier it was reported that an alley of memory of the victims of the genocide was opened in Salsk. She appeared near the Salsky brick factory, not far from the place of mass executions.

          Aaron, my respect!
          I have long said that the word "genocide" should not be distributed among national apartments. If Jews, Ukrainians, Russians and Belarusians were shot together in Minsk, then the genocide was only against Jews? This is more like commerce in order to receive compensation, and not in memory of the dead.
          And what about the captured female Red Army soldiers, commanders and political workers of the Red Army?
          It is to recognize the genocide against the entire Soviet people.

            You can also recognize the genocide of Soviet soldiers by the party and military leadership in the defense of the Crimea ..: About 150 thousand soldiers were thrown who could still fight ... This is not counting those who were previously captured! And Admiral Oktyabrsky, an informer and a stupid sycophant and an intriguer in the Kremlin Wall, knocked out another hero for himself .... Do you know why the history of the Second World War is false ?? In too many places, Khrushchev screwed up and others ... Stalingrad alone is worth something after the acts of Timoshenko and Khrushchev ... But they weren’t shot?

      "Earlier" is when? At a time when there was a German Democratic Republic and friendship "friendschaft"? Or when the Germans began to invest in the Russian economy after the collapse of the USSR, and at the same time palm off on our schoolchildren "letters from German soldiers" who disappeared in the Russian expanses in 1941-1944? We see what these German "soldiers" were actually doing in Russia. Or before the European Parliament, or someone else there, adopted a resolution that the USSR was guilty of unleashing the Second World War (incomprehensible to the mind!)? Unfortunately, until the thunder breaks out, the peasant will not cross himself. We stand on that. The English still say "better late than never. But it's better never to be late."

        And now what, the Germans do not invest in our economy? I work in a factory with all German equipment. Delivered in the last few years. We are generally silent about SP2. Do you think they were afraid that they would hold a grudge? Nonsense! Business in Israel and Germany feels quite normal. There are too many Chekhov's heroes in our guide (Man in a case) No matter what happens. This, by the way, directly relates to the fact described in the article. One region.

          I agree with you, we Russians are too sentimental, we are afraid to offend our partners, we are afraid that they will raise the price or leave, but we don’t know our own prices. Abroad, this has long been understood, and therefore ropes are twisted out of us. And it is necessary in a different way, to put yourself in the center of your loved ones in relations with countries that are similar to Germany. It was necessary that the Germans built a plant for the production of machine tools, and did not supply ready-made machine tools that would become obsolete in 5 years. And why is it so difficult to make a decision based on an obvious fact, to declare genocide a genocide, but it is necessary to "achieve" this?

      After some time, Russia will "remember" about the "Orange", and finally correctly indicate everything about the "Kursk".
      The time for "politics" is coming to an end, because the principle of "two sides" disappears in politics, when there are "biddings". The West is the only thing that has been offering lately - these are new NATO contingents on our borders.
      Now there will be more truth, only the question is extremely fair, "why were they silent before, violated the principles of the Constitution of the Russian Federation?".
      And yes! The Germans, as NATO members, "categorically will not be welcome" in the manifestation of aggression. Germans, remember the Hungarian cemeteries ("well, they didn't want to give up - they fought to the last") near Voronezh. Let's be frank and honest - stop "playing around". Consider this a reminder. Berlin will no longer see "Soviet soldiers" - there are not many of us, but there are strategic weapons.

      I have always been struck by the inconsistency, bordering on the debilism of the actions of our authorities. The latest example is the attacks of roaming dogs. I take the child to the garden. Once I went through the gate and did not put on a mask, I thought about it .. A portly security guard runs out and shouts about the mask .. And a pack of stray dogs runs around the territory of the kindergarten, they are fed from the kitchen. I make a remark to the woman. In response, not a dog breeder ..

        In Transbaikalia, a 7-year-old girl was beaten to death. The governor came and said, "We can't shoot, it's against the law. We need to send an initiative to the Duma."
        And interestingly, it was this governor who, three weeks ago, demanded that the unvaccinated be caught on the street and forcibly vaccinated. That it was illegal didn't bother him.

    Genocide - acts committed with the intent to destroy, in whole or in part, any national, ethnic, racial or religious group.

    There is little information in the article - why now and why genocide?
    The crime of genocide has a well-defined corpus delicti.
    It is clear that the Nazis committed murders and other crimes, but there is a specific article specifically on genocide
    Criminal Code Article 357. Genocide

    Actions aimed at the complete or partial destruction of a national, ethnic, racial or religious group as such by killing members of this group, causing serious harm to their health, forcible obstruction of childbearing, forced transfer of children, forced displacement or other creation of living conditions designed for physical destruction members of this group -
    the applicable sentence is deprivation of liberty for a term of from twelve to twenty years, with restriction of liberty for a term of up to two years, or life imprisonment, or the death penalty.

    that is, the prosecutor's office must prove that 1. the actions were aimed specifically at "the destruction of a national, ethnic, racial or religious group as such", that is, to prove that specifically members of one of the four listed groups were purposefully destroyed in the Rostov region
    2. to prove that the law has retroactive effect - then Article 357 of the Criminal Code, of course, did not apply, and this type of crime was not specified in the Criminal Code of the RSFSR. The USSR joined the Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide only in 1954, and the convention itself came into force only in 1951.
    While there is another article
    Criminal Code Article 356. Use of Prohibited Means and Methods of Warfare

    1. Cruel treatment of prisoners of war or the civilian population, deportation of the civilian population, looting of national property in the occupied territory, use in an armed conflict of means and methods prohibited by an international treaty of the Russian Federation -

    shall be punishable by deprivation of liberty for a term of up to twenty years.

    Which is based on the Hague and Geneva Conventions (an international treaty of the Russian Federation) and there are no problems with retroactive effect - these conventions are recognized by the Nuremberg Tribunal as binding on all parties to military conflicts, and after it by all modern international courts, such as the ECtHR, for example, or the ICC, as in force during the war and now.
    Why the accusation of genocide? In the everyday sense, this word is often used as a synonym for mass crimes, but in the legal sense, this is not the same thing, lawyers understand this very well.
    It is not entirely clear from the article why such an accusation is being made in the Rostov region?
