Ladislav Niznansky's Acquittal in Nazi Trial

In one of the last Nazi war crime trials to take place in Germany, a court in Munich has acquitted Ladislav Niznansky, who stood accused of murdering over a hundred civilians. The judges ruled that there was no conclusive evidence that Niznansky, a Slovak by birth, had participated in the slaughter of 164 civilians. The acquittal has triggered heavy protest in Slovakia, not least from the last living survivors of the massacre. In his commentary Vladimir Müller questions the wisdom of the judges' ruling but is pleased that the trial, which was instigated by Slovakia, took place at all. "Regardless of its outcome this trial makes an important point, namely that the slaughter of civilians constitutes a war crime. In investigations of such crimes, the time factor plays an important role. This will also serve as a warning to those who have committed crimes in the former Yugoslavia, Rwanda, Iraq and Argentina."
