COPENHAGEN - Denmark's top prosecutor says two elderly Danes—including one holding a Swedish passport—cannot be prosecuted because there is no evidence linking them to the mass murder of Jews in Belarus during World War II.

Mohammad Ahsan said Tuesday he found no evidence for active or passive participation in the killings after the Simon Wiesenthal Center appealed a similar decision by Copenhagen prosecutors in November.

  In 2015, the center asked Danish police to investigate the case after Denmark's Justice Ministry had turned down a similar request as not their responsibility.

  Center head Ephraim Zuroff believed there was a strong case against them because of documents found by Danish historians that said they were in the camp run by the Waffen SS where 1,400 Jews died.
