The daughter of a Nazi who fled Europe with a painting stolen from a Jewish man during the Holocaust has been dragged before a judge and charged with concealing the artwork.
Patricia Kadgien has been under house arrest since earlier this week in her home in the seaside town of Mar del Plata, Argentina.
She is the daughter of Friedrich Kadgien, a key aide to Adolf Hitler's monstrous Luftwaffe chief Hermann Goering, who fled to South America after the war.
Patricia, who also goes by her middle name Monica, and her husband Juan Carlos Cortegoso, were charged Thursday with aggravated concealment of property for possessing the painting 'Portrait of a Lady,' reported Argentine outlet InfoBrias.
Local prosecutor Carlos Martinez said that 'the crimes being covered up are serious, linked to crimes of genocide, theft in the context of genocide, and are related to a systematic plan to appropriate works of art and jewelry perpetrated by the Nazi regime.'
