A. It was not prohibited for Poles, but I was charged with only the publicizing of this fact.
Q. I could not quite get that, unfortunately. May I ask you to repeat what you were charged with?
A. I was charged with the fact of having publicized this church sponsored transfer which is usual at Vilseck, and that I made it public. That was explained as if I had invited and even asked the population to attend the funeral.
Q. In other words, you were not charged with having transferred this Pole and sponsored it by the church, but rather, it was the fact that you had violated the State directives, is that correct?
A. Yes.
Q. The first point was dealt with only by the Gestapo?
A. Yes.
Q. In other words, Rothaug had nothing to do with that?
A. No, he had nothing to do with that.
Q. However, you were charged with other violations of State directives, were you not? Is that correct?
