Frankfurt municipal officials reported today that the intensive re-screening of Frankfurt police, which was ordered after the surprise arrest of two Frankfurt police officers as Nazi war criminals, has turned up two more suspects.
The two new suspects, whose names were not disclosed, proved to have been members of the notorious Battalion 306, which had the assignment of slaughtering Jews, Gypsies and partisans behind the German lines in Russia during World War II. Information on the two, both police inspectors, has been transmitted to the Ludwigsburg Central Office for Investigation of Nazi Crimes.
The officials said that orders had been issued that all Frankfurt policemen will have to fill out new forms under oath stating where they had been stationed and what duties they performed during the war.
