Argentina's Supreme Court Discovers Nazi Materials in Basement

ai generated text

The 83 boxes of Nazi material were confiscated by Argentinean authorities during World War II and were sent by the Germany embassy in Tokyo to Argentina in June 1941 on the Japanese steamship "Nan-a-Maru". The large shipment drew attention from authorities at the time due to concerns that its contents could affect Argentina's neutrality in the war. The boxes were recently rediscovered in the Supreme Court's basement, where they were unearthed from wooden crates and found to contain stacks of Nazi papers, including material intended to promote Adolf Hitler's ideology in Argentina.

    2. Many of the documents were in areas of the state that had not previously been considered in connection with the Nazi escapes.
    3. We are analyzing suspicious financial transactions that were disguised as diplomatic missions or accounting entries in the central bank archives.
