The family of Adolf Eichmann, convicted mass murderer of European Jewry, has not made a request to visit him before he is executed, if the death sentence is carried out, Minister of Justice Dov Joseph said last night;

He made the statement in Israel’s Parliament in reply to a question; Eichmann is in the death cell in an Israeli jail awaiting the outcome of an appeal to the Israel Supreme Court from the death sentence imposed on him after he was convicted of having had a key role in the Nazi wartime slaughter of 6, 000, 000 European Jews.
