Man Accused of Persecuting Jews as Policeman in Poland During World War II

TRENTON, N.J. (AP) - The Justice Department has asked a federal court to revoke the U.S. citizenship of a man who allegedly served in a Nazi-sponsored police force during World War II.


Michael Bojcun, 86, is accused of joining the Ukrainian Auxiliary Police in 1941, a few months after Nazi Germany occupied the city of Lviv, which was in Poland at the time and is now in Ukraine.

Bojcun allegedly served in the police force during three years when the Nazi occupiers took increasingly repressive measures against Jews.

"The UAP actively participated in confining and terrorizing the Jews of Lviv, and then in rounding them up to be murdered," said Assistant Attorney General Christopher A. Wray.

1. These auxiliary forces were just as evil as the nazis.
I wish they could catch all the bastards. Late justice is better than no justice.

2. An ex-Nazi? Did he know Bush & Rove's granddaddies?
Prescott Bush was a Nazi financier who helped Hitler rise to power.
Some have also alleged that Karl Rove's grandfather owned a company that built a Nazi concentration camp. Rumsfeld's grandpa just happened to work for the same construction firm. Cozy, eh?
