German poster campaign launched to find surviving Nazis
<snip>
"A poster campaign has launched in Germany aimed at tracking down the last surviving Nazi war criminals and bringing them to justice.
Some 2,000 posters showing the entrance to the Nazi Auschwitz death camp and asking people to come forward with information have been displayed in Berlin, Hamburg and Cologne.
The US-based Simon Wiesenthal Center offers rewards for useful information.
It estimates there to be 60 people alive in Germany fit to stand trial.
Some are suspected of having served as guards at Nazi death camps or being members of death squads responsible for mass killings, particularly early on in the war."
