Acquisition

In 1970, during the sorting of various remnants, there occurred the discovery of fragments of files of the Commander of the Ordnungspolize Moravia which had escaped post-war appraisal. A separate fonds was created from the find, to which part of the fonds B 300 Inspector of Uniformed Protectorate Police in Moravia was appended. During the arrangement of the fonds in 1970 the alphabetical structure of arrested gendarmes (created after the liberation at the Land Command of the National Security Corps) was cancelled and the original disposition schedule was reconstructed.

Scope and Content

The fonds contains materials concerning the supervision of the German occupation administration over the Protectorate gendarmerie and police. Only the following sources concern the Jewish matters: Complaints about gendarmes due to their anti–German behaviour and their contacts with Jews 1941, Senior Constable, retired, Richard Rotrökl, concealment of Jewish money 1942.

System of Arrangement

The fonds contains only Files.
