Demjanuk was released in Israel by mistake. They had not correctly identified him, thinking he was somebody else. Demjanuk is wanted for assisting in murder in 29000 cases. He was also known for his extraordinary cruelty and brutality.

Witchhunt it is? Maybe you listen again to how I quoted Marcel Reich-Ranicki here:

It wasn't that he was released by mistake , its that they made serious mistakes in the extradition and trial , they thought they had nazi X when they really had nazi Y

Yes. Nevertheless he was misidentified. If they would have known at the time when the decisions were made whom he was, he would have been in prison, if not being hanged, since long.

In the camps, prisoners who were promoted to ranks of deputy guards often were even more brutal than SS and Lager guards themselves. These so-called "Kapos" were feared, becasue they tried to survive and to escape being degraded again by showing the Nazi-guards what wonderful brutal, determined guards and thugs they were. that way, they hoped to prove their worth as guards to their masters. not all were victims of circumstances, and some of them, due to the inherent flaws of human nature, may have even enjoyed it to be devils - like some Nazi thugs also enjoyed to torture and to kill people for taking satisfaction from the act of torturing and killing itself. Many of these Kapos were indeed Russians, and other Slavic prisoners.

Demjanjuk is accused of being a guard at the Flossenberg Camp in Germany where 29,000 inmates died from unsanitary conditions, malnutrition and other atrocities.
No the main charge relates to his time at Sorbibor not Flossenberg , the big difference being that the latter was just a concentration camp where lots of people died and the other was an actual extermination camp .
