The Munich District Court opened proceedings today to recover 64,580 marks from Mrs. Erika Heyde, wife of a Nazi doctor arrested last fall and facing trial next September on charges that he administered death medications to prisoners in concentration camps during World War II.
According to the court, Mrs. Heyde received the funds as a “widow’s” pension, although she knew that her husband was alive and working as a psychiatric consultant in Schleswig-Holstein under an assumed name.
