    Mr Csatary, a former Slovakian art dealer living in Canada, was stripped of his Canadian citizenship in 1997 and placed on the Simon Wiesenthal Center's list of most wanted Nazi war criminals in 2012. He was tracked down in Budapest by British reporters in July 2012 and placed under house arrest, as he had been condemned in absentia in 1948 by a Czechoslovakian court for torturing Jews during his involvement with the Nazi-established Jewish ghetto in Kosice during World War II, though he claims he was merely an intermediary and not directly involved in war crimes.

    Mr Csatary insists that he was merely an intermediary between Hungarian and German officials in Kosice and that he was not involved in war crimes. Kosice - called Kassa at the time - was the site of the first Jewish ghetto established on Hungarian territory, following the German occupation of the country in 1944. In 1948, a Czechoslovakian court condemned Mr Csatary to death, in absentia, for torturing Jews. Mr Csatary fled to Canada after the war, where he worked as an art dealer in Montreal and Toronto. He disappeared in 1997 after being stripped of his Canadian citizenship. He was in 2012 named by the Simon Wiesenthal Center as its most wanted suspect. He was tracked down in Budapest by reporters from the UK's Sun newspaper in July 2012, with help from the Simon Wiesenthal Center. He was put under house arrest.
