A sad passing of a man who never gave up

Simon Wiesenthal, credited with bringing over 1000 Nazi war criminals to justice, died peacefully in his sleep at the age of 96.

Described as the 'Conscience of the Holocaust', he worked tirelessly to make sure that those who committed atrocities during the Holocaust were brought to justice.
