ARGENTINA – A federal judge ordered the transfer of a box of
Nazi artifacts found in the basement of Argentina's Supreme Court to a
protected area and the transfer of the case to the Supreme Court.
The box, containing passports, maps, envelopes, pamphlets,
and notebooks belonging to Nazi Party members, is said to have entered the
country through the German Embassy in Tokyo on a Japanese ship in 1941.
Argentine authorities have revealed documents on
high-ranking Nazis who fled to Argentina: more than 1,850 files have been made
public on the government website.
Among them are Josef Mengele, Adolf Eichmann, Edward
Roschmann, and Gestapo officer Walter Kuchmann.
The documents include personnel files, press clippings about
arrests or investigations, certificates, and telegrams. /The JusticeLeague
