| Section C II z.v.B. | General affairs relating to the building inspectorate |
| Chief: | SS Sturaf. Kiefer |
| Deputy: | SS Ostuf. Funke" |
| Although the defendant, on
cross-examination, denied that any duties relating to the building inspectorate
constituted any part of his field of tasks, the Tribunal did not accept his
denial in fact of the matters contained in the document. Therefore, it may be
clearly seen from what source the Tribunal based its finding for the foregoing
excerpt from the judgment. The remaining paragraphs of the defendant's
"statement" are merely arguments as to why the Tribunal should have not reached
the conclusions as found by it. He complains particularly of the finding of the
Tribunal that the defendant was Kammler's deputy. The Tribunal had ample
evidence to support this finding from the appointment of the defendant by
Kammler as his deputy, as set out in Document NO-1244, Pros. Ex. 45. The
defendant further complains of the finding of the Tribunal that the defendant
prepared plans and drawings for concentration camp installations. The Tribunal
had ample evidence to support such findings from Documents NO-4470, Pros. Ex.
662 and NO-4471, Pros. Ex. 663, both of which the defendant admitted having
signed. Therefore the Tribunal, having again fully considered the closing statement of the defendant, together with his statement filed on 28 July 1948, together with the judgment and the entire record, and finds no legal or valid reason to modify, vacate, or amend its original judgment and hereby reiterates and reaffirms the same, except the sentence, which will he dealt with in another portion of this opinion. |

If, after fully considering such defense briefs, it should appear to the Tribunal |
