Bonn (JTA) — German prosecu-
tors have posted a $333,000 re-
ward for information leading to
the arrest of the last leading Nazi
still believed to be on the loose.
Alois Brunner, 83, has been
the target for years of fruitless
search efforts.
State prosecutors in Cologne
and Frankfurt made the reward
offer in the hope of finally cap-
turing Brunner.
Mr. Brunner, an Austrian cit-
izen, served during World War II
as personal secretary to Adolf
Eichmann, Hitler's chief aide.
The person whom Eichmann
once described as his "best man"
orchestrated the deaths of some
128,000 Jews from Austria,
Greece, France and Slovakia dur-
ing the war years.
Mr. Brunner was listed earlier
this year in the German news-
magazine Focus as one of Inter-
pol's 12 most-wanted people.
According to the magazine,
which quoted information from
the Interpol center in Lyon,
France, the former SS officer who
was previously believed to be liv-
ing undisturbed in Damascus,
Syria, had obtained an Austrian

passport under an assumed
name and moved to Argentina.
But in August, French police
said they failed to locate Mr.
Brunner in Argentina after re-
ceiving tips that he left his hide-
out in Syria.
Mr. Brunner lived in Essen,
Germany, until 1954 under the
alias of Alois Schmaldienst.
He then fled to Damascus,
where he had worked as a busi-
nessman and "government ad-
viser" using the name Georg
Fischer.
Authorities in Germany,
France and Austria have issued
warrants for Mr. Brunner's ar-
rest.
As far back as 1992, diplomats
in Syria maintained that Mr.
Brunner was dead.
But the German news-
magazine Der Spiegel quoted
French Nazi hunter Serge Klars-
feld as saying that Mr. Brunner
still lives in Damascus in a state-
owned apartment, under a "sort
of a house arrest."
According to various reports,
Mr. Brunner has been spotted in
Brazil, Argentina, Chile and
Cambodia.

Jerusalem (JTA) — A coordinat-
ed effort by Israeli security and
army forces led to the arrests of
three Palestinians suspected of
involvement in the Sept. 8 killing
of a Palestinian from the West
Bank town of Halhoul.
The arrests prompted Presi-
dent Ezer Weizman to call for
apologies from those who had
said the killing was carried out
by Jewish extremists.
Salman Zamareh, 22, was shot
dead in his home in Halhoul, lo-
cated near Hebron, by uniden-
tified gunmen who were wearing
Israeli army uniforms.
But speculation that Jewish
extremists might be involved in
the killing surfaced after Halhoul
residents said some of the as-
sailants spoke Hebrew, and af-
ter two small Jewish extremist
groups, Eyal and the Sword of
David, each claimed responsibil-
ity for the attack.
Israeli opposition leaders ac-
cused government ministers of
exploiting the crime to lash out
at Jewish settlers.
The Likud Party called on For-
eign. Minister Shimon Peres and
Environment Minister Yossi
Sarid to issue a public apology.

resents settlers in the West Bank
and Gaza Strip, said in a state-
ment that even though two small
Jewish extremist groups did
claim responsibility for the at-
tack, "this should not direct the
prime minister and members of
the Cabinet to put a blemish on
the entire settler population."
The Kiryat Arba Council,
which represents settlers living
near Hebron, said it was consid-
ering filing a libel suit, Israel Ra-
dio reported.
Mr. Peres said that he was re-
lieved that the killers were not
Jews.
The focus of the investigation
shifted to the Palestinians after
a bullet from a Karel Gustav sub-
machine gun was removed from
Mr. Zamareh's body.
That type of weapon was not
used by the Israel Defense Force
or Jewish settlers, police said.
Police said the detainees were
cooperating with police and had
confessed to taking part in pre-
vious robberies in the Hebron
area.
The suspects also conveyed in-
formation during questioning
that only people involved in the
killing could have known, police
