Answer
Papen was granted a release on appeal from his denazification sentence in 1949. This ruling came after an initial conviction and sentencing in 1947, which had found him guilty of war crimes and crimes against humanity. The appeal process highlighted legal discrepancies in the denazification process and contributed to a broader societal reassessment of the severity of punishment for Nazi collaborators and officials.
