«Дела военных преступников перед Нюрнбергскими военными трибуналами. Том III»

«Аргумент о том, что подобное общее планирование не может существовать в условиях полной диктатуры, несостоятелен. План, в осуществлении которого участвует ряд лиц, все равно остается планом, даже если он задуман лишь одним из них; и те, кто исполняет план, не избегают ответственности, доказывая, что они действовали под руководством человека, который его задумал» [681]

Данное положение опровергает дальнейший довод о том, что лицо, связанное с исполнением такого гитлеровского плана, не может быть виновным в сговоре или подлежать наказанию за содействие в осуществлении этого плана или замысла в качестве соучастника сговора. Несомненно, верно, что не все подсудимые принимали участие в разработке плана, замысла или сговора Министерства юстиции нацистского режима с целью выполнения декрета «Ночь и туман», однако они знали о его противоправности и бесчеловечной цели и помогали его осуществлять. Факты вне разумного сомнения доказывают, что они осознанно содействовали, помогали и были связаны с планом, замыслом или сговором в целях ведения войны и совершили те военные преступления [и преступления] против человечности, которые вменены им в вину в обвинительном заключении. Трудно было бы составить более совершенный план или замысел, свидетельствующий о сговоре с целью совершения преступлений, чем соглашение, заключенное между ОКВ, Министерством юстиции и гестапо для исполнения и реализации декрета Гитлера «Ночь и туман». Все подсудимые, которые принимали участие в исполнении и реализации декрета «Ночь и туман», знали о его незаконности и о его жестоких и бесчеловечных целях.
