Paris (JTA) — French war-
time collaborator Paul
Touvier will go on trial for
crimes against humanity on
March 17 in the Versailles
Court of Justice.
Mr. Touvier, 79, was the
intelligence chief of the col-
laborationist Vichy regime's
militia in Lyon during
World War II. He was twice
sentenced in absentia to
death following the war.
But he managed to avoid
arrest for 25 years by seek-
ing refuge in French con-
vents that showed sympathy
to right-wing causes.
His Catholic supporters
eventually succeeded in con-
vincing then President
Georges Pompidou to pardon
him in the early 1970s.
Although kept secret, the
pardon was discovered a few
months later by former
members of the French
Resistance, and the case was
given wide publicity in the
media.
New charges were subse-
quently pressed against Mr.
Touvier, who again returned
to hiding.
Mr. Touvier was finally
arrested in 1989 at a convent
in Nice and jailed until 1991,
when he was released be-
cause of reported bad health.
After protracted legal
battles, Mr. Touvier will
now be tried on only one
count: He admittedly picked
seven Jewish hostages who
were shot on June 29, 1944
in the southeastern town of
Rillieux- la-Pape to avenge
the Resistance's murder of
Philippe Henriot, the Vichy
regime's minister of pro-
paganda.
Families of other Jewish
victims had sought to have
Mr. Touvier brought up on
additional charges, but the
courts ruled that those
charges would fall under the
category of war crimes,

statute of limitations.
In March, Mr. Touvier will
face charges of crimes
against humanity, which do
not fall under the statute of
limitations.
Mr. Touvier is currently
free on bail, but he must
report his whereabouts to
the police on a regular basis.
Mr. Touvier was the third
French citizen charged with
crimes against humanity.
The first was Maurice
Papon, a senior official in
the Vichy Interior Ministry
Paul Touvier:
Faces crimes against humanity.
who ordered the arrest and
deportation of hundreds of
Jews, including children, in
the Bordeaux area.
By virtue of his actions,
France became the only Eu-
ropean country to arrest and
deport Jews from areas that
were not occupied by the
Nazis.
Asked about the likelihood
of a trial for Mr. Papon, who
is now 83, French Nazi-
hunter Serge Klarsfeld told
the Jewish Telegraphic
Agency that French judicial
authorities are doing their
best to delay the case.
Mr. Papon was first in-
dicted over 12 years ago, but
because of various
technicalities, he has never
been brought to trial.
Mr. Papon later became
head of the Paris police and
served as a Cabinet minister
under President Valery
Giscard d'Estaing.
Another French citizen
charged with crimes against
humanity was Rene Bous-
quet, who was the Vichy
regime's chief of police. He
ordered the infamous "Vel
d'Hiver" roundup of Jews in
Paris in 1942, when more
than 10,000 men, women
and children were detained
by the French police and
delivered to the Nazis, who
subsequently deported them
to the Auschwitz concentra-
tion camp.
Mr. Bousquet was
murdered last June by a
non-Jewish man deemed
mentally unbalanced by
police authorities.
In 1987, Gestapo police
chief Klaus Barbie, a Ger-
man national, was tried in
France for crimes against
humanity. El
