Switzerland to open secret files on Auschwitz 'Angel of Death' Mengele

The Swiss Federal Intelligence Service has announced it will allow access to long-sealed files on Nazi war criminal Josef Mengele, following a court challenge by historian Gérard Wettstein. Historians have sought these files to investigate persistent rumors that Mengele—known as Auschwitz's 'Angel of Death'—visited Switzerland after a 1959 international arrest warrant was issued, though concerns remain about potential heavy redaction of sensitive details.
