Dearg code telegram from John J. Hearne to Seán Nunan (Dublin)
(195)

Washington DC, 14 May 1951

My tel. 193.1 For your information it now appears Anich's real name is Artukovic. He was Minister of the Interior Croat Cabinet and Yugoslav Embassy here has now requested his extradition as 'War Criminal'. It is understood from State Department that United States Authorities do not want him to remain in United States. Britain apparently are still undecided whether to grant Yugoslavia's request or not. Report follows.2
