Austrian Nazi doctor Aribert Heim, who has been hiding from German police since
1962 and presumed to be living in Chile, was assassinated
in 1982 according to former Israeli intelligence officer
Danny Baz.
In his new book Baz claims the doctor, who, during the Word War II killed and
experimented on prisoners in the Austrian concentration
camp Malhausen, was killed in the U.S. by a group called
“La Chouette.”
Baz identifies La Chouette as
a secret group of militant murderers who in the 1970s and
1980s hunted and killed several former Nazi officers and
doctors who had managed to escape standing trail in post-war
Germany. In Baz’s new book he writes that Heim, also knows
as “Doctor Death”, was lured from his assumed exile in
Canada to California by the clandestine group and then
assassinated at Santa Catalina Island of the coast of California.
The assassination of Doctor Death,
said Baz, was paid for by a former concentration camp prisoner
identified as “Barney.” The former prisoner supposedly
survived a torture session led by Heim.
The disclosure notwithstanding,
German police still apparently believe Heim is alive and
living in Chile. In August this year, Chilean media sources
revealed German investigators had visited the country looking
for the escaped Nazi.
The German police questioned Heim’s
family, which currently resides in Chile. Heim’s daughter
Waltraud Diharce has lived in Chile since the 1970s, mostly
in Puerto Montt. Strengthening the Chilean connection,
the police noted that Heim’s former girlfriend Gertrud
Böser, who is Waltraud’s mother, visited Chile 18 times
between 1982 and 1992.
When interrogated by the police.
Heim’s daughter Waltraud claimed to know nothing about
her father’s fate and said her mother died 20 years ago.
Other family members have also provided various accounts
of Heim’s death, one saying he died of cancer in South
America and another saying he was murdered in Russia.
