Dutch Nazi
Says He's Sorry
Amsterdam (JTA) — One
of Holland's most wanted
Nazi collaborators, who may
soon be extradited to stand
trial here for war crimes,
was interviewed by Dutch
television last week from
Argentina, where he found
refuge 43 years ago.
Jan Olij, whom a Dutch
court sentenced in absentia
to 20 years in prison, said he
was sorry for what he had
done and begged
forgiveness.
He submitted to the inter-
view reluctantly after the
Argentine government an-
nounced it was prepared to
extradite him and another
Dutch war criminal sought
for years by the authorities
in the Netherlands.
Now 71, Mr. Olij lives in a
Buenos Aires suburb. His
whereabouts were unknown
until 1981 when, apparently
homesick, he advertised for
a pen pal in the local news-
paper in the village where
he was born.
Mr. Olij and his brother
joined the Waffen SS soon
after the German invasion of
Holland in 1940 and were
trained at a barracks in
Munich. Jan Olij served on
the eastern front, where he
allegedly participated in
killing Jews.
On his return to Holland
in 1943, he joined the so-
called Green Police, which
hunted down people hiding
to avoid deportation.
Mr. Olij was arrested after
the war but escaped to
Spain, from where he sailed
for Argentina in 1949. He
became an Argentine citizen
in 1952.
