About

Dieter Wisliceny worked in Eichmann's Jewish-affairs unit and held posts in Slovakia, Greece, and Hungary. He took part in deportation policy and in talks with Jewish rescue groups.

After the war Wisliceny testified about Eichmann at Nuremberg. A Czechoslovak court sentenced him to death, and he was hanged in Bratislava in 1948.
