He was known as <em>Maks the Butcher</em>, and even the Nazis noted his cruelty. Lieutenant Artur Hefner, a Wehrmacht officer, visited Jasenovac in February 1942 and described it as a camp <em>“</em>of the worst kind, equal to Dante's inferno”. After the war, the Nazi criminal fled justice and settled in Spain, protected by the Franco regime and under a false identity. He settled in Carcaixent, in the Valencian Country, where he lived under the name Vicente Pérez García and ran a printing press. In 1969 he was murdered in his home under circumstances never fully clarified. Since then, he has been buried in a tomb with a shield of fascist Croatia.</p>]]></description>
