Josef Mengele(1911-1979)

The news on his death was announced in 1985, when his remains were found in São Paulo, Brazil, after an extensive search brought on by a tip from West Germany police when they located a friend of his living in the country and who kept a diary about Mengele's grave, kept secret ever since 1979, the real year of his death.
