Following a request from the Simon Wiesenthal Center, the Argentinian National Archives has made available digitally a series of 1,850 declassified documents including information on Nazi criminals in Argentina. This information details pieces of information on prominent Nazi criminals who escaped to Argentina following World War II, including Adolf Eichmann, Erich Priebke and Josef Mengele. While much of the information had been previously released by former Argentinian President Carlos Menem in 1992, it was only available for viewing in a specially designated room at the AGN. You can find the documents here.
