Cruel torture in Anklam: Court expresses tough punishment!

In a shocking turn of the events, two 50-year-old Germans were sentenced to several years in prison by the Pasewalk district court after torturing a 52-year-old man in Anklam and crashing a swastika into his leg. The court sentenced the two perpetrators to three years and four months as well as three years and nine months in prison for community dangerous bodily harm. The cruel deeds took place in an apartment in June 2024, where the victim not only beaten and choked, but also seriously injured with a lighter and flammable spray, such as ndr.de reported .

The two convicts had punished the victim bitterly because they thought he was too often in contact with the sister of one of the perpetrators. The incident, which is described as extremely violent and hideous, shows the dark brutality of human conflicts. The second perpetrator already has criminal records that were connected to the use of unconstitutional symbols, but this did not matter in the judgment, since the swastika was not publicly displayed. The deeds have left not only physical, but also psychological scars.

Again and again the dark past becomes visible in the Verwlam region, as the presented story of Fritz Imbl, who took part in a brutally led France campaign as a soldier in World War II and was sentenced to two and a half years in prison after a misstep. The late book presentation of the work "The Wehrmacht prison Anklam 1939-1945" shows the dark role of the prison during the Nazi era, in which over 100 death sentences were carried out, such as the Nordkurier reports . The historical place, which housed well over 1,000 prisoners, is now considered a unique memorial location and is intended to help not forget this dark past.
