TEL AVIV (JTA)—John Dem
janjuk, alleged former guard at the
Treblinka death camp and notor
ious for his brutality, was re
manded in custody for an addi

ination of evidence against him
continued.
Police prosecutor Alex Ish-Sha-
lom said that considerable a-
mounts of new evidence have been
gathered since Demjanjuk was ex
tradited to Israel by the U.S. two
weeks ago. He said 12 Treblinka
survivors have positively identified
the Ukrainian-born former Ameri
can citizen from Cleveland, Ohio,
from photographs as the guard
known as “Ivan the Terrible” be
cause of his brutal treatment of
inmates.
Judge Aharon Simcha, presi
dent of the Jerusalem Magistrate’s
Court which arraigned Dernjanjuk
on his arrival in Israel, traveled to
Avalon prison near Ramla where a
courtroom was set up to hear new
evidence. He said the evidence will
be used to prepare the formal
charges on which Demjanjuk will

At the White House, spokesman
Larry Speakes confirmed that the
administration was considering
the new arms sale for the Saudis.
He went out of his way to describe
the equipment as “defensive
weapons.”
After noting that no final deci
sion has yet been made, he said:
“This review is taking place within
the context of the most recent Iran

Demjanjuk had no comments.
But, speaking in Ukrainian
through an interpreter, he asked
that he be allowed to telephone his
family in the U.S. “After all, 1 am

In response to questions, he
refused to speculate about how the
most recent developments in Egypt
would impact on its relationship
with Israel. Privately, however,
U.S. officials are convinced that
President Hosni Mubarak’s re
gime is going to have to “cool it”
further with Israel.
Prospects of an early Mubarak
meeting with Prime Minister
Shimon Peres, one U.S. official
said, were now remote, given the
Union,” he said. Judge Simcha
ruled that a telephone call would
be up to the prison authorities. The
prisoner is allowed to correspond
with his family and will be allowed
to talk to them by telephone when
they come to Israel, the judge said.
angry reaction within Egypt such a
summit could trigger.
In January, the U.S. gave Egypt
another $100 million as part of last
year’s $1 billion emergency eco
nomic grant. A first installment of
$500 million was made last year.
U.S. officials refused to say when
the remaining $400 million
transfer would be made.
Egypt owes the U.S. interest on
some $4.5 billion, and is seeking
some ways to ease that debt service
burden.
