The Trial of Nazi War Criminals: The Mystery of the Disappearance of Hitler's Secretary Baumann is solved

Martin is known as the "Shadow of the Fuehrer". Baumann was Nazi no. 2 war criminal, and his disappearance became one of the biggest unsolved cases of the 20th century. Now the mystery is finally solved.

Late on the night of April 28, 1945, the Battle of Berlin was underway, and the entire city of Berlin was reduced to rubble, and the encirclement of soviet troops was getting smaller and smaller. Hitler and Eva were married in the bunker of the Reichstag. Before ending his life, Hitler dictated his political and personal wills to the Civil Secretary. He then instructed Bowman in a trembling voice to be responsible for the execution of the two wills.

Bowman did not believe he could stand out. He told his secretary Kruger during the breakout: "I'll try it, but it won't work out." "It was late at night on May 1. The mystery begins at this point: where did this "demon" go?

The Allies launched a massive manhunt: they posted 200,000 portraits of Bowman throughout Germany. At the same time, the International Court of Justice in The Hague sentenced the war criminal by hanging in absentia.

Since then, rumors have grown about Bowman's whereabouts. His tracks can be "spotted" almost everywhere. From Egypt to Australia, from Spain to the Czech Republic, from Germany to Latin America..... He is almost everywhere. A total of 16 people were arrested on suspicion of being Bowman.

One day in 1972, an underground pipeline was being laid next to a small station in West Berlin. A worker's shovel suddenly touched something very hard, and when he dug it up, it was a human skull. The workers called in police, and under their supervision continued the careful excavations, eventually unearthing two well-preserved bones. It is estimated that the two bodies were the remains of Bauer and Hitler's personal physician, Stumfinger, who had been searching for years.

Experts conducted a careful analysis, and they studied the height of the bones, teeth and bone wounds. According to Bowman's two sons, their father fell off a horse in 1938 or 1939 and injured his keyari. In addition, the forensic doctors found debris from the fine-necked glass bottle used for the drug in the teeth gap between the two corpses. Experts estimate that the two died of poisoning.

On April 4, 1973, the Frankfurt City Attorney General announced that the Baumann case was officially closed and the search for Baumann was over. The prosecutor's office allowed Bowman's family to bury him on the condition that the bones could not be cremated so that they could be studied further later. Bowman's relatives sensibly rejected the suggestion. Because they know that the graveyard of Nazi II war criminals will become a holy place for neo-Nazis from all over the world. As a result, Bowman's remains were deposited in the forensic database of the Hesse State Criminal Investigation Bureau.

However, more than 20 years later, there is still much debate about whether the corpse is Bowman himself. Will the expert's appraisal go wrong? Last year, Mr. Bao's eldest son, 68, issued a statement saying his father's case had not yet been fully clarified. Bauman's relatives asked for a re-identification using modern genetic techniques. Experts took blood samples from Bowman's family and removed a small piece of bone from the skeleton. The appraisal took place simultaneously in the cities of Frankfurt, Munich and Bern for several months. It turned out that the genetic code of the two specimens matched exactly. Experts came to the unanimous conclusion: Martin. Baumann was indeed poisoned to death.

Bowman's remains will be secretly buried by his family. The place of burial will not be known to anyone but his family.
