A 93-year-old Hans Lipschis, who acknowledges he served with the SS in Auschwitz but claims he was only a cook, is under investigation by German authorities as a possible accessory to murder.
Thomas Will, a prosecutor with the German office that deals with Nazi war crimes, says a new investigation was only possible after the case of John Demjanjuk – the first person convicted in Germany on the basis of serving as a camp guard, without evidence he was involved in a specific killing.
