Zentai’s appeal is due to be heard in Perth shortly.

Steiner has furnished the new evidence to Senator Robert Mclelland claiming that the Hungarian government knew where Zentai, now 88,  was living and from a soldier at the barracks at which Peter Balazs was beaten to death in front of other prisoners claiming that Zentai was not involved in the murder. Balazs was pulled from a tram in Budapest for not wearing the mandatory yellow Star of David in spite of the fact that the was carrying papers showing that he was living in Budapest under Swiss protection.
