INDICTMENT


Prosecution
International Military Tribunal
FRENCH DELEGATION

Annex 13

The Delegate of the Provisional
Government of the French Republic
of the Prosecution to the
International Military Tribunal

to

The Members of the International
Military Tribunal
Nuremberg, 20 November 1945

I have the honor to inform you that the decision rendered by you on 17 November at 1500 hours, to reject the motion signed the 16th by Mr. Justice JACKSON, Colonel POKROVSKY and M. de MENTHON cannot reject the declaration contained, according to which "The Committee of the Prosecutors created according to the Charter, designates Alfried KRUPP VON BOHLEN UND HALBACH as a defendant" because this declaration has been made as the last resort, under Article 14 b of the Charter.

Accordingly, Alfried KRUPP VON BOHLEN UND HALBACH is specifically designated as a major war criminal.

Consequently, I have the honor to inform you that the following declaration has been published by the Chief Prosecutors representing Great Britain and the Government of the French Republic:

"The Prosecutors representing the United States of America, the Provisional Government of the French Republic, and the Union of Socialist Soviet Republics having agreed in the designation of Alfried KRUPP as a major war criminal under Article 14 b of the Charter of the International Military Tribunal, the French and British Delegations are now engaged in the examination of the cases of other leading German industrialists, as well as certain other major war criminals, with a view to their attachment with Alfried KRUPP, in an indictment to be presented at a subsequent trial."

We will let you know of this new indictment as soon as it is established.

For the Delegate

/s/ CHARLES DUBOST

to:

4- The Members of the I.M.T.
1- General Secretary of the I.M.T.
3- The Members of the Prosecution (for information)
