AN EMPLOYEE SEARCHES FOR RECORD CARDS AT THE ARCHIVE OF THE HEADQUARTER OF FORMER EAST GERMAN SECRET POLICE IN BERLIN. An employee searches for record cards of the archive of the former east German Ministry for Security or "Stasi" in the filing cabinet inside the headquarters in Berlin December 22. Huge cache of thousands of packs filled with shredded documents and records cards of the former East German secret police are collected in the archive. The Gauck Authority, in charge of processing the archive, received million requests for information from individuals, justice authorities, police, government offices, companies, research centres and media. About 1.3 million of those were for personal files or help in identifying the code names used by the Stasi in their files to disguise the identity of their informants.
