>Local laws in East Berlin sanctioned the murder of Germans who sought to escape. The local laws in East Berlin sactions up to 8 years of prison when trying to escape. Of course, most of the guards at the wall had order to shoot on sight, the number of traps and deadly traps didn't help people survive getting spotted. The order to shoot on sight (Order 101) actually ran contrary to standing east german law, it was actually illegal (not that the regime actually cared) |
