Le nazi le plus recherché a échappé à la justice pendant soixante ans.


Alois Brunner, bras droit d'Adolf Eichmann, serait décédé il y a quatre ans. Il n'aura jamais été confronté à la justice pour son rôle dans l'holocauste. il n'aurait rien regretté de ses actions jusqu'à la fin de sa vie.

 "Brunner, who would be 102, was responsible for deporting more than 125,500 Jews in Europe to Nazi death camps during World War II. "The victims' families are a very large group and it's fair to say the people who suffered at his hands would have wanted him to be punished and would be disappointed," Zuroff told the Sunday Express this weekend. According to Zuroff, the Wiesenthal Center learned of Brunner's death from a "former German secret service agent who had served in the Middle East." The former agent told the center that "Brunner was dead and buried in Damascus" at least four years ago.

Zuroff described Brunner as "unrepentant" at the time of his death, adding, "He said himself his one regret was he did not kill more Jews." That's probably a reference to a 1987 phone interview Brunner gave to the Chicago Sun-Times. In it, he said, "the Jews deserved to die. I have no regrets. If I had the chance I would do it again." Brunner ran the Drancy transit camp outside Paris starting in 1943. During his tenure at the camp, there was a rapid deterioration in conditions for inmates, along with an increase in deportations to death camps, the New York Times writes."
