What was the punishment for helping Jews during World War 2?
The penalties varied. In Poland and other parts of Eastern Europe hiding Jews (or helping Jews to hide) carried the death penalty, often for the whole family giving shelter. In most other Nazi-occupied countries one could be sent to a concentration camp. "The price that rescuers had to pay for their action differed from one country to another. In Eastern Europe, the Germans executed not only the people who sheltered Jews, but their entire family as well. Notices warning the population against helping the Jews were posted everywhere. Generally speaking punishment was less severe in Western Europe, although there too the consequences could be formidable and some of the Righteous Among the Nations were incarcerated in camps and killed" Source: http://www1.yadvashem.org.il/righteous_new/about_the_righteous.html (accessed 21 May 2009)
