Simon Wiesenthal's Work Never Ended

Simon Wiesenthal's mission in life to bring Nazis to justice never ended.

Some Nazis are still around, living out their days in the odd corners of the planet.

Like in Syria? Or Spain?
Alois Brunner, Adolf Eichmann's right-hand man. Brunner is estimated to have been responsible for the deaths of 130,000 Jews. He was last seen on a street in Damascus in 1992, and was believed to be living in a guarded apartment in the Syrian capital. He would now be aged 92.

* Aribert Heim, 91, "the butcher of Mauthausen". A former concentration camp doctor who injected petrol into Jewish prisoners and amputated body parts without painkillers, he is believed to live among the many German pensioners on the Costa Blanca in Spain. There is a £95,000 bounty on his head.
