Hunter cites evidence of fugitive Nazi
From Times Wire Reports
The Simon Wiesenthal Center has strong evidence that a former SS member known as “Dr. Death” is in Chile or Argentina, a top Nazi hunter said.
Efraim Zuroff, the center’s director in Israel, said he would fly to the southern Chilean city of Puerto Montt, where SS doctor Aribert Heim’s daughter lives.
Heim, who would be 94, tops the center’s list of most-wanted Nazi war criminals. He was indicted in Germany on charges of murdering hundreds of inmates at the Mauthausen concentration camp in Austria.
