Martin Bormann, principal deputy to Adolf Hitler, is definitely alive, hiding out in the Curitiba district of Brazil, it was reported here today by Marc Turkow, representative of DAIA, the Central Jewish organization of Argentina, attending the current meeting of the Central Conference of Jewish Organizations here.
According to Mr. Turkow, Bormann was recognized on a street in Buenos Aires, where he had been living, by a former Italian army officer. The latter had met Bormann during the war, when the Italian officer accompanied the late Italian dictator, Benito Mussolini, on a visit to Hitler’s headquarters in Berlin. Bormann was previously reported having fled Buenos Aires in May, 1960, almost immediately after Adolf Eichmann was captured there.
