A German court convicted a 97-year-old woman of having contributed to the murder of over 11,000 people during her time working as a typist at a Nazi concentration camp in World War II, NDR broadcaster and others reported on Tuesday. 

The court in Itzehoe handed Irmgard Furchner a two-year suspended sentence. She was sentenced under juvenile law, owing to the fact that she was only 18-year-old at the time.
