A 93-year-old former SS guard has been found guilty of accessory to the murder of 5,232 people at a Nazi concentration camp in the final days of the second world war.

Bruno Dey, who was 17 when he joined Stutthof concentration camp as a guard, was handed a two-year suspended sentence by a youth court in Hamburg on Thursday morning.

Judge Meier-Göring said she believed Dey had still not fully engaged with the suffering of those whose escape he had prevented, and saw himself as a passive spectator rather than a perpetrator. “For you it [Stutthof] was not hell, it was monotonous work.”

About 40 survivors or their descendants were co-plaintiffs in the trial and the majority appeared via a video link.

The trial was hailed as potentially the last criminal case of an individual charged over the Holocaust.
