Sources confirm that Switzerland has agreed to declassify files on Josef Mengele, the Nazi doctor known as the 'Angel of Death', following intense pressure from the UK government. The files, held in Swiss banks and intelligence archives, are expected to reveal new details about Mengele's post-war escape and financial networks. UK ministers have demanded full transparency on Holocaust assets and records, warning that any delay would be 'unconscionable'.
Mengele fled to South America after the war and died in Brazil in 1979. The declassification is part of a broader push to expose hidden Nazi archives and compensate victims. Critics argue the Swiss have dragged their feet for decades.
One source said: 'The UK is tired of the stonewalling. These files belong to history, not to vaults.
