Poland is supposedly trying to extradite a German lady aged 97, who it implicates of being an SS prisoner-of-war camp guard.
Polish district attorneys state the lady, who they call as Hildegard N, kept detainees in ‘inhumane conditions’ and would deal with a long prison term if she is given the nation and condemned of causing dangerous suffering on prisoners.
It is declared that she worked for the Nazi’s SS at Mittweida, a sub department of the Flossenbürg camp, now in East Germany, from 1944 to 1945, according to The Times.
Hundreds of ladies, a few of whom were jailed throughout the Warsaw Uprising were carried to the camp from Auschwitz and surrounded by amazed barbed wire and required to work 12-hour shifts for an engineering business assisting the German airforce, the paper reported.
Then, in April 1945, detainees were marched far from the center and a minimum of 2 Polish ladies were shot.
The Polish district attorney leading the examination, Artur Orlowski, stated prisoners had actually branded conditions at Mittweida ‘primitive’, without any warm water or healthcare.
He included that detainees needed to reside on black coffee, percentages of bread and soup made from nettles or veggie peelings, and were not provided winter season clothes for much of their stay.
This is far from the very first extradition case including senior individuals declared to have actually assisted the Nazis throughout the Second World War.

In November, it was validated that a previous guard at Neuengamme camp, aged 94, would be extradited from the United States to Germany.
But in January 2020, a believed Nazi war criminal passed away quietly aged 100 without dealing with charges for his supposed participation in a 1944 massacre in Poland.
On the case of Hildegard N, The Times reported Mr Orlowski stated: ‘The proof we have actually collected leaves no doubt.
‘We even managed to interview the last surviving inmate in Gdansk.’
It is uncertain if Germany will accept the extradition order.
