Appendix 7 — 'All must be shot'

"Considering the Social Danger They Represent, All Must Be Shot."

The shooting of the victims was executed without a previous court sentence, on the ground of a simple order. Above is shown the last page of a list containing the names of 78 executed Latvians and, at the end, a remark written in Russian and signed by S. Shustin, Commissar of NKGB: "Considering the social danger they represent, all must be shot." S. Shustin. June 26, 1941.
