Herbert Cukurs, known as the Butcher of Riga, murdered about thirty thousand Latvian Jews. He managed to avoid the Nuremberg Trials and fled to South America after the war. In 1965 , when the statute of limitations for all Nazi war crimes was about to expire, global efforts to track down Nazi criminals escalated. The Mossad, Israel's national intelligence agency, played a significant role in this process. Its agent Yaakov Meidad, who had kidnapped Adolf Eichmann three years earlier, led a mission to assassinate Cukurs. In a thrilling secret operation that could rival even the most ambitious spy novels, Meidad traveled to Brazil in elaborate disguise to find Cukurs and bring him to justice. Show more
