Heinrich Dankelmann (2 August 1887 – 30 October 1947) was a LuftwaffeGeneral who served as the third Military Commander for the Territory of the Military Commander in Serbia from 23 July to 20 October 1941. During his tenure as commander he oversaw numerous war crimes against the population,[1] most famously hanging of five prisoners at Terazije Square. He was sentenced to death and executed for war crimes in Yugoslavia in 1947.[2]

World War II

To deal with the Uprising in Serbia and the failure of the Commissioner Government, Milan Aćimović, the leader of the CG, suggested that Danckelmann negotiate with Milan Nedić to form a new puppet government. After short negotiations on August 29, 1941, Nedić's government was formed. This was done with the blessing of Heinrich Himmler and Reinhard Heydrich but at great risk for Danckelmann as Adolf Hitler, Joachim von Ribbentrop, and the German High Command were not informed.[3]

During September, Danckelmann met with the Italian delegation in Belgrade and Nedić, at which time it became clear to him that Nedić couldn't handle the uprising. Danckelmann wanted Italian troops to help crush uprising, however Nedić insisted that only German troops could hold 'peace in Serbia'. Italians were hesitant to send them because hesitant to help, because of problems in their own occupied territories.[4]

Durante el gobierno de Danckelmann, la población serbia fue aterrorizada en un intento por sofocar el levantamiento, mientras que el gobierno de Nedić actuaba como aliado del ocupante. [ 4 ] Cinco «patriotas» fueron ahorcados como escarmiento el 17 de agosto. [ 2 ] Veintiuna personas fueron ejecutadas y 50 arrestadas por el asesinato de un cartero alemán entre el 1 y el 3 de septiembre en Belgrado. 290 rehenes fueron ejecutados entre el 16 y el 17 de septiembre. Crímenes similares ocurrieron también en el interior de Serbia, como el asesinato de 20 personas cerca de Bogatić . [ 4 ] Danckelmann también amplió la jurisdicción del campo de concentración de Banjica a toda el área de Serbia ocupada, mientras que anteriormente se consideraba limitada a Belgrado . [ 5 ] Franz Böhme sucedió a Danckelmann como comandante de Serbia ocupada el 19 de septiembre. [ 6 ]

Danckelmann fue condenado a muerte y ejecutado por crímenes de guerra en Yugoslavia en 1947. [ 2 ]
