The World - News from Jan. 29, 1987

Nazi war criminal Klaus Barbie was confronted in his jail cell in Lyon, France, by a former French Resistance fighter who said he had tortured her before she was sent to a death camp, her lawyers said. Lise Lesevre, now 86, whose husband and son died in Nazi camps in World War II, was arrested in Lyon in 1944. “It’s him. I am sure he was the one. . . ,” she said of Barbie, known as “the Butcher of Lyon,” who is awaiting trial for war crimes and crimes against humanity.
