pencil sketch of a Nazi by Dr K Prabhakar Rao


ALEKSANDRAS LILEIKIS. LITHUNIAN. NAZI


He was a LITHUNIAN and during WW II headed Gestapo like force in occupied Lithunia at Vilnius province and he collaborated in anti Jewish activities that resulted in killing the Jews in large numbers to a tune of 66000 between 1941 to 1944 by Nazi killing squads. After the war he fled to Germany and avoided identification till 1955. he obtained entry into USA in 1955 by declaring that he he never took part in persecutions. He got US citizenship in 1976.however Nazi hunters were suspecting him and were searching for proofs. At last When LITHUNIAN archives were opened after USSR broke up, his signatures could be found linking him to atrocities and persecution. he was stripped of his citizenship in 1996 and he fled to his native country,however before any significant action could be initiated against him due to poor health , He died when he was 93 years on 30 sept 2000. he frudstrated the efforts of simon wiesenthal Nazi hunters unit at Los angels for yerars. The center blamed the Lithunian govt of delierately dragging the case and thus their efforts were defeated.In fact the authorities waited for a biological solution.Nazi hunters claimed that he was a major war criminal and was a big fish too being a senior officer from the LITHUNIAN police unit like Gestapo.He never repented and was considered a hero by his country men. he claimed he was a Nazi distance fighter and did not know what happened to those whom he turned over to Nazis.
