Tuvia Friedman [1922-2011] a survivor of the Schkolne camp who worked all his life to capture the Nazi war criminals, founder and director of the Documentation Institute. His part in capturing Eichmann was significant. On his own initiative, he began to publish ads in foreign newspapers in which a monetary reward of 10,000 dollars was offered to those who provided information about Eichmann's whereabouts. As a result, Friedman was flooded with a flood of letters from many countries. One of the letters that arrived in October 1959 and appeared to be reliable claimed that Eichmann lived near Buenos Aires, Argentina. This was the first thread as to Eichmann's whereabouts in Argentina, which eventually led to his capture by the Israeli Mossad. On May 23, Ben-Gurion announced at the Knesset that Eichmann had been caught and brought to Israel. Two days later, Friedman handed over to the Israel Police a file containing 400 pages of material about Eichmann. He worked on collecting this material for nearly 15 years. Friedman also worked to abolish the statute of limitations in German law for Nazi crimes. His struggle was crowned with success in 1979, when the Bundestag decided to abolish the statute of limitations for the crimes of murder and genocide.
