Three ex-Nazi doctors in their 70s will face charges of helping to gas thousands of mental patients in World War II, despite a plea that a trial would put too much strain on their hearts. The three, two of whom are practicing gynecologists, are expected to go on trial early next year, accused of complicity in gassings at death camps. The three, Klaus Endruweit, 72, Aquilin Ullrich, 71, and Heinrich Bunke, 71, were acquitted at at earlier trial, but the West German high court reversed this decision.
