Authorities are charging former Nazi-aligned workers as accessories to murder for their contributions to the regime that killed an estimated 6 million people.
The defendant is accused of having “supported the cruel and malicious killing” of more than 3,300 people while working at the Sachsenhausen concentration camp from July 1943 until February 1945, German prosecutors said in a statement.
The indictment was filed at the state court in Hanau, which will decide whether to send the case to trial. If it does, the man, who was an adolescent at the time of the alleged crimes, will be tried under juvenile law. Prosecutors told the Associated Press that the suspect had been deemed fit to stand trial at least on a limited basis after a psychiatric assessment in October.Hans-Jürgen Förster, a German lawyer who is expected to represent Shimon Rothschild, a former prisoner at Sachsenhausen, told Der Spiegel that everyone who worked under the Nazi regime — from commanders to guards to secretaries — should be held accountable.
