Robert Servatius, the Cologne lawyer who will defend Adolf Eichmann, the Nazi who directed the annihilation of 6,000,000 Jews, was scheduled to leave for Israel today.
Prior to his departure he told the correspondent of the Jewish Telegraphic Agency that he hopes to be able to speak to Eichmann immediately after he arrives in Israel. He also said that he expected the Eichmann trial would take place some time in March or April.
