World War II witness links Demjanjuk to death camp recruitment station
In Jerusalem a witness testified that the Nazi prison camp where John Demjanjuk was held served as a recruiting station for death camp guards. Shmuel Krakowski of Yad Vashem said POWs at Chelm were moved to labor or death camps after brief stays, while Demjanjuk’s claims about his own capture and detention remain contested.
