Lithuania set Sept. 1 as the new trial date for an alleged Nazi war criminal. Jewish groups have complained that Lithuania has purposefully delayed the trial of Aleksandras Lileikis, who headed the Lithuanian security police during World War II. The opening of the trial has already been postponed three times. Lileikis’ lawyer says his client, 91, is too old to stand trial.
