THE RUDOLF REPORT

GERMAR RUDOLF · THE RUDOLF REPORTRudolf’s assertion that unambiguous technical evidence was superiorto ambiguous documentary evidence as “unscientific and unprofessionalprocedure”. 648In another affidavit made on April 30, 1993, Körber assertedfalsely that Rudolf supported“the Leuchter thesis that there was a danger of explosion throughoutthe Auschwitz compound, at least for structures, whenever gassingoperations with Zyklon B were going on.”Rudolf had in fact stated that the use of high concentrations ofZyklon B to reduce execution periods to minutes or seconds, as thewitnesses had reported, would mean that there would be safety problemsdue to explosive concentrations of hydrogen cyanide. 649 He hadnever spoken nor written of a general danger of explosion.The busy witness Körber was at it again on May 26, 1993, thistime to assert that the references to the Rudolf Report in various editionsof the Remer Depesche proved that the author Rudolf was thecause. Körber also claimed that Rudolf’s attempt to testify as an expertwitness, which was refused by the court, constituted conspiracy tocommit perjury. 650 On June 7, 1993, he repeated his accusations thatRudolf had instigated Remer to his misdeeds in the Remer Depesche,and offered evidence that would defer the possible termination of theinvestigation. 651It should be pointed out that there is no mention among Körber’sstatements of the fact that Germar Rudolf had written him a lengthyletter in January 1993, in which Rudolf presented detailed argumentssupporting the conclusions of his report. 652 Körber had never answeredthe letter. His only response had been to make false accusations aboutRudolf to the police.In mid-April 1993, the state attorney of Stuttgart set in motion anotherprosecution against Germar Rudolf in addition to the ongoingprosecution concerning incitement.
