A real-life drama took place on Thursday in the German cities of Hamburg and Itzehoe, where the notorious Irmgard Furchner (96) was due to appear at a special court. This woman worked for the Nazis during World War II, as a typist at the Stutthof concentration camp. She was in charge of making an inventory of all the people who had been taken to this atrocious place, which they never left. 

She participated in the brutal murders of 11.000 unlucky people and she was due to stand trial on Thursday, however, she instead disappeared without a trace. German media, who named her the secretary of evil, reported that in the early hours of the morning the 96-year-old lady left her nursing home on the outskirts of Hamburg without thinking twice about it. She allegedly took a taxi heading for an underground station and from that point on she vanished without a trace. 

- The Regional Court has issued a warrant for her arrest - Judge Dominik Gross stated. 

Furchner is one of the first women from the Nazi regime to be indicted. On Thursday, her charges were due to be read and a doctor was supposed to determine whether she was fit to stand trial. 

96-year-old Irmgard Furchner has been accused of working as a stenographer at the Stutthof concentration camp near Gdansk between 1943 and 1945, where she had been an accomplice in the murder of at least 11.000 camp prisoners. It is also worth mentioning that 65.000 people are estimated to have died at this atrocious place, mostly Eastern European Jews. 

This concentration camp was notorious for its killing methods. Unlike most other Nazi camps, where prisoners were killed in gas chambers,  the majority of Stutthof victims died of starvation and exhaustion. 

The International Auschwitz Committee was outraged by the fact that the accused failed to turn up and stand trial. 

- It shows incredible contempt for the rule of law and survivors - the Committee's statement says. 

Due to immense media interest, the trial was due to take place in the hall of a logistics company on the outskirts of Hamburg. This is probably one of the last trials of its kind.
