The Nazi war crimes trial of retired Ohio auto worker John Demjanjuk will resume Oct. 26, a court spokesman said in Jerusalem. The summer recess was extended when one of the judges on the case, Zvi Tal, suffered a heart attack Sept. 2. Spokesman Yossi Hassin said the judge’s condition is improving and he will return to the three-judge panel when the trial resumes. Demjanjuk, 67, who was born in the Ukraine, is charged with being “Ivan the Terrible,” a brutal guard at the Treblinka death camp in Nazi-occupied Poland.
