 According to official statistics, other courts had altogether issued 16,560 death warrants (contrasting with 664 before the war), of which about 12,000 were executed.In fighting partisans, 345,000 are reported to have been killed, of which less than 10% may have been partisans.This, however, should not obscure the fact that not only the National Socialist legal system was tyrannical (especially also with the protective custody, to be inflicted at the Gestapo's arbitration and to be fulfilled in a concentration camp), but this law also was broken to the detriment of those persecuted or opposing.
