Former Nazi Guard Loses U.S. Citizenship
From Times Wire Reports
U.S. District Judge Paul Gadola stripped a man of his citizenship because he hid his past as a guard at a Nazi labor camp.
Gadola, ruling in Detroit, agreed with government prosecutors that Iwan Mandycz was an armed guard at the Poniatowa labor camp near Lublin, Poland, for nearly six months in 1943.
Mandycz, who is in his 80s, can appeal. If the ruling stands, the U.S. may start deportation proceedings against him.
