New York (JTA) — An
Argentine judge has approv-
ed the extradition to West
Germany of accused Nazi war
criminal Josef
Schwammberger.
Anti-Defamation
The
League of B'nai B'rith
reported that Argentine
Federal Judge Vicente Bretal
of La Plata ruled this week in
favor of the extradition of
Schwammberger, 76, who is
accused of brutally shooting
and torturing hundreds of
Jews in Poland as a comman-
dant of a ghetto and several
labor camps during World
War II.
Rabbi Morton Rosenthal,
ADL Latin American Affairs
director, who visited Argen-
tina two weeks ago to discuss
suspected fugitive Nazis in
that country, received the
news by phone by Argentine
Attorney General Dr. Andres
Jose D'Alessio.
D'Alessio, who had discuss-
ed the Schwammberger case
with Rosenthal in Argentina,
said an appeal was an-
ticipated but expects that
Schwammberger will have
his citizenship revoked and be
deported to West Germany.
D'Alessio said the first ap-
peal decision will probably
come in March.
"We are very pleased by the
court's decision and we are
confident that the decision
will be upheld by the appeals
court," Rosenthal said.
The West German govern-
ment first requested
Schwammberger's extradi-
tion 14 years ago.
Documents provided by a
Stuttgart court described him
as a former SS officer respon-
sible for hundreds of execu-
tions while commandant of
the Rozwadow ghetto in 1942,
the Przemysl labor camp at
the end of 1943 and director
of a labor camp at Mielec in
1944-1945.
Schwammberger, a native of
Austria, was arrested a year
ago on a remote ranch in the
Argentine province of Cor-
doba, and has been detained
in that country since.
Argentine authorities in-
volved in his arrest claimed
Schwammberger did not deny
he was a camp commandant
in Nazi-occupied Poland.
Schwammberger was ar-
rested for war crimes in 1945
in Austria, but he escaped
and came to Argentina in
1950. It is believed he was
aided by the Odessa network
of former Nazi SS members.
He was apprehended last
November following the
publicizing of his case in Oc-
tober 1987 at a news con-
ference convened in
Jerusalem by the Simon
Wiesenthal Center, and West
Germany's offer of a reward of
$250,000.
Meanwhile, ADL's Rosen-
thal reported this week the
alleged disappearance of ac-
cused Dutch Nazi Abraham
Kipp, who was previously in
Argentina.
Rosenthal said Dutch
television reported last
November that Kipp, tried
and sentenced to death in
absentia in 1949 by a Dutch
court for the murder of at
least 20 persons, reportedly
disappeared and that his
house outside Buenos Aires
boasts a "for sale" sign.
Kipp, who was born in
Amsterdam, served the occu-
pying Nazi forces as a
policeman, reportedly roun-
ding up members of the
Dutch resistance and other
men, women and children, in-
cluding many Jews, ADL
reports.
He reportedly fled to Spain
in 1945 and from there to
Argentina, where he became
a citizen in 1953.

Israel, Egypt
Disagree On PNC
Jerusalem (JTA) — Israel
and Egypt have apparently
agreed to avoid a crisis over
Egypt's recognition of the in-
dependent Palestinian state
proclaimed by Yasir Arafat in
Algiers. Israel's protest to
Cairo was relatively mild and
the Egyptian response was
conciliatory.
Shimon Shamir, Israel's
ambassador to Egypt, met
with Foreign Minister Esmet
Abdel Meguid in Cairo.
Foreign Minister Shimon
Peres summoned Mohammed
Basiouny, the Egyptian am-
bassador, to convey Israel's
displeasure.
He told the envoy that
Israel viewed the Egyptian
step with gravity "since it
contrasted with the peace
treaty and with the desire of
both countries to proceed
with the peace process."
Although the Egyptian
move was not unexpected, the
Israelis were nevertheless
disturbed when it became
clear, after conflicting reports
from Cairo, that Egypt joined
with more than 30 countries
in formally recognizing an in-
dependent Palestine.
