Michigan - Deportation Of Ex-Nazi Camp Guard Upheld

Michigan - The U.S. 6th Circuit Court of Appeals in Cincinnati has upheld a decision to strip a former Nazi concentration camp guard of his U.S. citizenship, clearing the way for his deportation.
The ruling was against Johann Leprich, 80, of Macomb County's Clinton Township, north of Detroit and it means he probably will be deported, most likely to Romania.
Leprich, a retired tool and die worker, was an ethnic German born in Birk, Romania, in 1925. In 1943, he joined the Nazi military organization Waffen SS and served as an armed guard at Mauthausen concentration camp in Nazi-occupied Austria, court records say.
About 119,000 people were killed at Mauthausen.
