Sep-28 9:30pm SBS1-TV: As it Happened: Elusive Justice
At the end of World War Two, the Allies pledged to prosecute and punish the architects of genocide.
It was an ambitious promise, but only a few thousand Nazis and collaborators were convicted at the Nuremberg trials. The task of bringing Nazi criminals to justice was then undertaken by a handful of individuals – acting without official status or government support.
