Estaba acusado por el exterminio de 430.000 judíos.El criminal de guerra nazi Samuel Kunz murió en Alemania a los 89 años. La muerte le ganó a la Justicia. Samuel Kunz, uno de los tres jerarcas nazis más buscados del mundo, falleció el jueves pasado según anunciaron hoy las autoridades alemanas. Lo buscaban para juzgarlo por el exterminio de 430 mil judíos.Kunz figuraba tercero en la lista de criminales nazis más buscados por el Centro Simon Wiesenthal. Tenía 89 años e iba a ser juzgado desde febrero por un tribunal de la ciudad alemana de Bonn.La Justicia alemana estaba detrás de él desde el 29 de julio, luego de que Kunz reconociera en un juicio contra otro jerarca que había trabajado en uno de los campos de concentración nazi."Samuel Kunz murió el 18 de noviembre", "aparentemente en su domicilio. Tenemos el certificado de defunción", confirmó el fiscal Andreas Brendel, director de la Oficina para el Esclarecimiento de Crímenes Nazis de Dortmund, en el oeste de Alemania."El tribunal iba a pronunciarse sobre la apertura de un juicio", precisó Bendel y aclaró que la Justicia se vio obligada a archivar la causa tras la muerte de Kunz que debía ser juzgado por los asesinatos de presos judíos cuando era guardián del campo de Belzec, en la Polonia ocupada por los nazis, entre enero de 1942 y julio de 1943.También estaba acusado del asesinato de prisioneros judíos en dos incidentes separados, en el mismo campo de concentración. A 10 de ellos, los habría asesinado él mismo.El sumario era instruido en Bonn, ya que Kunz residía en la periferia de la antigua capital de Alemania occidental.Kunz había reconocido abiertamente ante los investigadores de la causa contra del ucraniano John Demjanjuk, juzgado en Munich por crímenes de guerra desde finales de 2009, haber trabajado en el campo de de Belzec. "Era evidente para nosotros que los judíos eran exterminados allí y luego también quemados", declaró en aquel entonces. "Olíamos el olor todos los días", agregó. La Justicia alemana puso en marcha el proceso para juzgarlo."El sentimiento dominante es de una terrible frustración", dijo Efraim Zuroff, director del centro Simon Wiesenthal en Jerusalén. "Después de décadas durante las cuales este hombre vivió libremente en Alemania, parecía que al fin iba a haber un juicio. Ahora evidentemente esto ya no ocurrirá", añadió.Kunz vivía cerca de Bonn libremente y hasta que se jubiló trabajó como profesor de oficios en el Ministerio de la Construcción.Según el centro Wiesenthal, Kunz se desempeñó también en el campo de entrenamiento de Trawniki de la SS. Por encima de él. En la lista de más buscados, se encuentran el húngaro Sandor Kepiro y el austríaco Milivoj Asner. El primero fue oficial de la Gendarmería húngara y participó en la organización del asesinato en masa de al menos 1.200 civiles en Novi Sad, Serbia el 23 de enero 1942. El segundo, fue jefe de policía en Slavonska Požega, Croacia. Y tuvo un papel clave en la persecución, deportación y muerte de cientos de serbios, judíos y gitanos.Para Zuroff, "el único consuelo es que estaba acusado, se le apuntó con el dedo, y en cierta medida fue una especie de justicia".CLARINPRINCIPALES CRIMINALES EN LA ACTUALIDAD.1. Dr. Sandor Kepiro - HungaryHungarian gendarmerie officer; participated in organizing the mass murder of at least 1,200 civilians in Novi Sad, Serbia on January 23, 1942Status – discovered in 2006 in framework of “Operation: Last Chance;” was originally convicted but never punished in Hungary in 1944 and apparently in absentia in 1946; Hungary refused to implement his original sentence but has opened a new criminal investigation against him which has not yet been completed more than three years after its initiation. 2. Milivoj Ašner – AustriaPolice chief of Slavonska Požega, Croatia Active role in persecution and deportation to death of hundreds of Serbs, Jews, and Gypsies Status – discovered in 2004 in framework of “Operation: Last Chance;” indicted by Croatia which in 2005 requested his extradition from Austria which initially refused the request because he ostensibly held Austrian citizenship; when it emerged that he had lost his Austrian citizenship, his extradition was refused on medical grounds. Media interviews with Ašner raised serious doubts about the decision of the Austrian doctors that he was medically unfit to stand trial and prompted a request by the Wiesenthal Center that he be examined by a foreign expert. In April 2009 a German expert confirmed the original assessment that he was suffering from dementia, but subsequent media interviews by Ašner again cast doubt on the veracity of the evaluation. 3. Samuel Kunz – Germanyparticipated in the mass murder of Jews in the Belzec death camp; also served in the Trawniki-SS training camp.Status: Discovered in the search for evidence in the case of Sobibor guard Ivan Demjanjuk currently on trial in Germany; currently under investigation by the German authorities. 4. Adolf Storms – Germany SS sergeant accused of participation in the mass murder of 58 Jewish forced laborers in the Austrian village of Deutsch Schuetzen on March 29-30, 1945. Status: Discovered by an Austrian student researching the massacre, he has been charged in 2009 by a German court for his alleged participation in the massacre. 5. Klaas Carl Faber - GermanyVolunteered for Dutch SS and served in SD as member of Sonderkommando Feldmeijer execution squad which executed members of Dutch resistance, Nazi opponents and those hiding Jews; also alleged to have served in a firing squad at the Westerbork transit camp from which Dutch Jews were deported to death camps. Status: Sentenced to death in 1947 by a Dutch court for the murder of at least 11 people, his sentence was later commuted to life imprisonment, but he escaped from jail in 1952 to Germany, where he was granted Germany citizenship which protected him from extradition back to the Netherlands. All efforts to have him prosecuted in Germany, have hereto been unsuccessful, although the German authorities have indicated a willingness to reexamine the case.6. Karoly (Charles) Zentai – Australia Participated in manhunts, persecution, and murder of Jews in Budapest in 1944 Status – discovered in 2004 by “Operation: Last Chance;” Hungary issued an international arrest warrant against him and has asked for his extradition from Australia in 2005; Zentai’s final appeal against his extradition to Hungary is currently being heard in a court in Perth.7. Soeren Kam - Germany  Volunteered for SS-Viking Division, where he served as an officer; participated in the murder of Danish anti-Nazi newspaper editor Carl Henrik Clemmensen.     Status – In 1999 Denmark requested the extradition of Kam, which Germany refused due to his German citizenship. Subsequent extradition request was refused in early 2007 on the grounds that Clemmensen’s death was not murder but manslaughter which was under a statue of limitation. 8. Peter Egner – United StatesServed in Nazi-controlled Security Police in Belgrade, Serbia from April 1941 until September 1943, during which time the unit participated in the execution of 17,444 civilians, mostly Serbian Jews along with Communists, suspected communists, Roma, and Sinti (Gypsies). Status: In July 2008 the United States Office of Special Investigations filed a request for the revocation of Egner’s American citizenship on the grounds that he concealed his service with the Nazis when he applied for immigration to the US and to obtain American citizenship. The case will be heard during the coming months. This week Serbia filed a request for Egner’s extradition to stand trial in Belgrade for his crimes during World War II. 9. Algimantas Dailide – GermanyServed in the Vilnius District of the Saugumas (Lithuanian Security Police); arrested Jews and Poles executed by the Nazis and local Lithuanian collaborators. Status: His American citizenship was revoked in 1997 and he was deported from the United States in 2004 for concealing his wartime activities with the Saugumas. In 2006, he was convicted by a Lithuania for capturing Jews and Poles trying to escape from the Vilnius Ghetto, who were executed by the Nazis, and was sentenced to five years imprisonment. The judges, however, refused to implement his sentence because he was old and was caring for his ill wife and “did not pose a danger to society.” In July 2008, in response to an appeal against the refusal to implement his sentence, Dailde was ruled medically unfit to be punished without being personally examined by the doctors who provided the expertise. 10. Mikhail Gorshkow – Estonia served as interpreter for the Gestapo in Belarus and is alleged to have participated in the mass murder of Jews in SlutzkStatus: Fled from the United States to Estonia before he was denaturalized for concealing his wartime service with the Nazis; has been under investigation in Estonia since his arrival several years ago, but no legal action has ever been taken against him.</blockquote>
