AboutDylan Pemberton Expertise My area of interest is the holocaust with particular reference to the Auschwitz Birkenau extermination camp. I can answer most questions regarding the lead up to and the ultimate deployment of 'The Final Solution' including the Wannsee Conference, ghetto liquidations, the Nuremberg Trials, post-war 'Nazi Hunting' by the likes of Simon Weisenthal etc. My knowledge / experience is perhaps best suited to someone who - for example - had a homework / coursework assignment in this area as opposed to a professional interest in which case there are, naturally, recognised experts and historians available.
Experience Lifelong interest in ensuring the events of the holocaust are never forgotten, visits to Auschwitz Birkenau and extensive literature on the subject.
Education/Credentials 10 GCSE's, several A-Levels, BTEC National Diploma Graphic Design, 15 years senior level business experience.
Question I have reason to believe that an accountant living in London is a former Nazi.
Who do I contact to check this out?
Answer Hi Michael,
Thanks for bringing this to my attention - you absolutely must do something about this if you beleive this to be the case so I will give you a few points of contacts:
Firstly, the Simon Weisenthall Centre based in Los Angeles - they have had great success in pursuing Nazis over the years and are themselves named after Simon Weisenthall who is a hero of mine and probably the best Nazi hunter of all time.
As I said, they are based in Los Angeles, California:
1399 South Roxbury Drive
Los Angeles, California 90035
310 553.9036
800 900.9036 (toll-free from within the U.S.)
information@wiesenthal.net
The calling code from the UK is 001
Next, you can simply call the police, you will need to ask for CID or similar as they do have an onus under European Law to follow this up and prosecute if evidence permits.
Next, you can speak to the Israeli Embassy in London who are always delighted to locate Nazis and - I would assume - have a number of ways of dealing with them both officially and unoffocially. Their details are:
2A Palace Green
Kensington
London W8 4QB
defence@london.mfa.gov.il
Tel: 020 7 957 9520
[EDIT - I TRIED CALLING THEM FOR YOU TO IDENTIFY THE BEST CONTACT AND THEY GAVE ME THE NUMBER OF 0207 9579 516 WHICH IS THEIR CONSULATE]
Finally, you can contact Operation Last Chance which is part of The Simon Weisenthall Centre and is tasked with hunting down Nazis - they also pay rewards I beleive:
“Operation: Last Chance” is coordinated and implemented by the Israel Office of the Simon Wiesenthal Center which can be contacted as follows:
Simon Wiesenthal Center-Israel Office: 1 Mendele St., Jerusalem 92147, ISRAEL
