Alleged Eichmann Collaborator Held in Vienna
Erich Rajakovic, Austrian citizen long based in Milan, was ordered held by Investigating Magistrate Kurt Forstner after questioning. The probe seeks possible aiding and abetting in the murder of Dutch and Austrian Jews, with no charges yet filed. Rajakovic reappeared at the Vienna court after a peripatetic postwar path through Switzerland and Munich. Royal authorities tied Harster to deportation allegations but he offered to resign on ill health.
