Revoke Citizenship
For Lithuanian Nazis? L,
Washington (JTA) — The U.S.
Justice Department is seeking to
revoke the citizenship of two for-
mer Lithuanian nationals who
allegedly participated in Nazi-
sponsored acts during World War
II.
The first complaint was filed
Dec. 7 in U.S. District Court in
Cleveland against Algimantas
Dailide of Brecksville, Ohio. The
complaint alleges that the 73-
year-old real estate agent served
in the Nazi-sponsored Lithuan-
ian security police in Vilnius,
Lithuania, during World War II.
The second complaint was filed
Dec. 9 in U.S. District Court in
Chicago, alleging that Wiatsches-
law (Chester) Rydlinskis, a resi-
dent of Bloomingdale, Ill. , served
- as a Nazi concentration camp
guard and guard dog handler in
the SS Death's Head Battalion
during World War II.
Both cases were filed jointly by
the Justice Department's Office
of Special Investigations and the
U.S. Attorney's Office in each city.
Mr. Rydlinskis, born in Lithua-
nia in 1924, allegedly joined the
Waffen (armed) SS in 1941 and
served in the SS Death's Head
Battalion at the Auschwitz and
Buchenwald concentration
camps from 1941 to 1945.
The complaint against Mr. Ry-
dlinskis, a retired draftsman,
charges that while at the Laura
subcamp of Buchenwald, the de-
fendant also guarded the camp's
inmates to prevent their escape
as they were evacuated in cattle
cars and by forced march toward
the Dachau death camp in late
March 1945.
Many prisoners died during
the evacuation due to the harsh
conditions, including inadequate
food and water and abuse by
guards.
According to the complaint,
Mr. Rydlinskis was arrested by
British military forces and held
as a war crimes suspect, then was
transferred to U.S. custody in Al-
lied-controlled Germany, where
he was held for almost two years.
U.S. officials have not disclosed
why he was released.
The complaint charges that
Mr. Rydlinskis obtained a U.S.
immigrant visa in Germany in
1956 by concealing his wartime
activities and his arrest and de-
tention by British and American
military forces.
The complaint against Mr.
Dailide alleges that he took part
in the Nazi-allied Saugumas, or
security police, in Vilnius
province. The Saugumas was a
subordinate component of the
German Security Police and Se-
curity Service.
The Saugumas aided the oc-
cupying Nazi forces in arresting,
detaining and turning over for ex-
ecution Jews caught outside their
barbed-wire ghettos or those who
were trying to escape.
The complaint also charges
that Mr. Dailide concealed his
wartime activities when apply-‹
ing to immigrate to the United
States in 1949.
The Dailide case is the latest
in a series of Nazi war criminal
cases made possible with the help
of Lithuanian records.
• The Lithuanian government
has recently made available
World War II records to Justice
Department investigators.
In September, OSI initiated ac-‹
tion against two other men ac-
cused of war crimes in Lithuania.
One of the cases is against
Aleksandras Lileikis of Norwood,
Mass., who is accused of having
been the chief of the Saugumas
for the entire Vilnius province
and thus Mr. Dailide's boss. His
case is moving through the
courts.
Court Rules
Against Nigerian
Jerusalem (JTA) — People be-
longing to the Ibo tribe of Nige-
ria are not Jewish, according to
a ruling handed down by Israel's
High Court of Justice.
As a result of the ruling, an es-,y
timated 2 million members of they
tribe do not have the automatic
right to immigrate to Israel and
receive citizenship under the
country's Law of Return, a right
reserved under Israeli law for
Jews worldwide.
The ruling came in response to
a petition filed by Chima Edward
Onyolo, an Ibo who has been liv-
ing in Israel for six years and is
married to an Israeli woman.
As the husband of a Jew, Mr.
Onyolo is entitled to recognition
and permanent residence in Is-
rael under the Law of Return,
which also applies to the relatives
of Jews.
But mr. Onyolo sought recog-
nition as a Jew himself, saying
his tribe had historical links to
Judaism.
He cited several customs prac-
ticed by the Ibo — including cir-
cumcision on the eighth day after
a male is born — which are iden-
tical or similar to Jewish religious
customs.
But the Ministry of Interior
told the court that it had con-
sulted with rabbis and scholars
and could find no convincing ev-
idence pointing to an Ibo-Jewish
connection.
