LAHOUSEN: They came from the German High Command and from one of the highest offices of the RSHA according to what Reinecke said. I have never seen or read them with my own eyes, therefore this is all I can state.
GEN. RUDENKO: But you have heard during these meetings where they were discussed and when they were discussed.
LAHOUSEN: Yes, during the discussion, the course of which I have already described, or at least its essential aspects, of course.
GEN. RUDENKO: And during these sessions which you mentioned were the questions raised about murders and burning of cities?
LAHOUSEN: There was no talk at these discussions about setting on fire, but mention was made of the orders which had been issued with respect to the prisoners.
GEN. RUDENKO: About the murders only.
LAHOUSEN: About the executions.
GEN. RUDENKO: That is all.
THE PRESIDENT: Does the French Prosecutor wish to ask any questions?
MR. DUBOST: One single question. Who gave the orders for the liquidation of the Commandos?
