MUNICH (AP) - German prosecutors say doctors have determined
that John Demjanjuk is fit to stand trial over allegations that he
was an accessory to murder at a Nazi death camp.
Munich prosecutors say in a statement Friday that they expect to
file formal charges later this month.
They say doctors have determined the 89-year-old is fit to face
trial on condition that court sessions do not exceed two 90-minute
periods per day.
The retired auto worker is accused of being an accessory to
murder in 29,000 cases at the Sobibor camp.
The longtime Ohio resident was deported in May after losing a
court battle to stay in the United States.
