Alois Brunner is a Austrian SS Officer born in 1912. During World War II, Brunner was noted for being Adolf Eichmann's assistant and stands accused of murdering 140 000 Jewish persons,mainly in Slovakia and France. After the war ended, he escaped from an Allied prison and stayed within Germany until 1954, when Brunner then went to Egypt before settling in Syria. Brunner has once been sentenced to death, in absentia, and in the 1980's he lost several fingers and an eye when the Israeli Secret Police, MOSSAD mailed him a bomb. Brunner has managed to escape any deportation to Europe, due to his workings with the Syrian government.

In December 2005, reports disclosed that an international manhunt was under way to find Brunner who, if still alive, would be 95 years old. If caught, Brunner would be extradited to France where he was sentenced in absentia in 2001 to life in prison for crimes against humanity. It was reported in 1996, that Brunner had passed away, the last known sighting of him was in 1992, in Syria.
