Prosecutors recommend 30 Auschwitz guard charges
Justice officials say the special German prosecutors' office that investigates Nazi war crimes is recommending pursuing charges against 30 alleged former Auschwitz guards.
The Baden-Wuerttemberg Justice Ministry said in a release Tuesday that prosecutors had investigated 50 former guards and decided to go after 30 cases. The Ludwigsburg-based federal prosecutors' office now passes those cases to state prosecutors because it can't file its own charges. Further details were expected to be announced later. (AP)
