Nazi hunter wants US, Austrian, Hungarian suspects

The world's top Nazi hunter urged Serbia on Monday to seek the extradition of three elderly war-crimes suspects and blasted Austria and Hungary for failing to help bring two of them to justice. Efraim Zuroff, head of the Israeli branch of the Simon Wiesenthal Center, said at a news conference with Serbian officials that he was helping them provide evidence against Peter Egner, who lives in the United States, Milivoj Asner, who lives in Austria, and Sandor Kepiro of Hungary. Egner allegedly served in a Nazi unit that killed 17,000 civilians in Serbia during World War II. Asner is wanted for WWII atrocities against Serbs, Jews and Gypsies in Croatia.
