Extent and Medium

Two files with about 300 items each.

Scope and Content

Files n. 384 and 385 contain testimonies and reports of the Yugoslav State Commission for the Investigation of the Crimes of Occupiers and their Supporters (SCICOS) about the arrest, deportation and killing of Jews (mainly from Belgrade). Many of them concern the Topovske supe and Sajmiste camp in Belgrade, but also the mass-shooting of 400 male Jews in Rakovica (Belgrade) on October 14, 1941. Some documents refer to the arrest of Jews hidden in Belgrade and other cities.

The materials were produced after the war by SCICOS special commissions. They are collected in separate files containing only documents about Holocaust in Serbia. They were used for collecting datas about the number of victims and for writing a report about the racial persecution of the Jews in German occupied Serbia.
