US judge: No restoring Demjanjuk citizenship

A federal judge in Ohio has rejected a bid by convicted Nazi war criminal John Demjanjuk to regain his US citizenship. Judge Dan Aaron Polster ruled Tuesday against Demjanjuk, a retired autoworker from suburban Cleveland who had argued a newly discovered document suggested an incriminating document against him was a Soviet fraud.

But the judge says the document only reflects the Cold War-era speculation of an FBI agent. He says its theory is "no match" for government evidence placing Demjanjuk at numerous concentration camps. (AP)
