Ted Bolgar: Laszlo Csatary

Laszlo Csatary: He lived too long, Holocaust survivor Ted Bolgar told Montreal. He owes me 70 years for my family, according to CTV. Csatary is believed to have sent nearly 16,000 Jews to concentration camps from Kosice, a collection point then in Hungary but now part of Slovakia and Many around the world are expressing disappointment with the death of Laszlo Csatary at the age of 98, not out of sadness, but because they wanted to see him survive long enough to be punished for the many war crimes he is believed to have perpetrated. After the war, the Hungarian Csatary lived a comfortable life in Montreal and Toronto and worked as an art dealer at least until 1997, in spite of the fact that he had been sentenced to death in his absence in Czechoslovakia in 1948 for war crimes.
