British investigators are gathering evidence in the Soviet Union for the possible prosecution of more than 100 Britons alleged to have committed Nazi war crimes. Thomas Hetherington, a member of the inquiry team that arrived in Moscow earlier this week, told reporters in the Soviet capital that he and the other investigators plan to interview witnesses to war crimes in Nazi Germany and the territories it occupied during World War II. In the Soviet Union, he said, the probe is focused on the Ukraine and the Baltic republics of Lithuania and Latvia.
