Az 50/I. zászlóalj katonái elleni háborús bűnös perek a gajszini tömeggyilkosságok ügyében

The Hungarian and the Soviet Courts called the members of the I/50 battalions to account in the second half of the 1940s and at the beginning of the 1950s, because these units were involved in the liquidation of ghettos in Gaysin and in its countryside. I study one Soviet und three Hungarian trials. In my paper I will demonstrate the progress and attributes of the post-war impeachment. The political police investigated the war crimes between 1947 and 1953 ambivalent(ly), because the investigations often characterized the deficit of consistence and professionalism. The investigation authorities used several times duress against the defendants. By these incidents I do not only deal with the violence, but also with the concept, which this violence aimed at. I study the trials circumstantially. I demonstrate the difference and correspondence of the different courts. I analyse the factors of adjudications, what were the aggravating and extenuating circumstances in the people’s courts and the military courts.
