Authorities grill suspect in Auschwitz sign theft
None
Polish prosecutors said yesterday that they started questioning a Swedish former neo-Nazi leader about the theft of the “Arbeit macht frei” sign from the gate of the World War II death camp in Auschwitz.
Anders Hoegstroem has denied plotting to steal the sign, whose German inscription translates as “Work Will Set You Free”, Boguslawa Marcinkowska, spokeswoman for prosecutors in Krakow, southern Poland, said. (AFP)
