description: "Stanislau Stankewitsch was a Belarusian politician and intellectual who became a Nazi collaborator during World War II. Under the German occupation, he was appointed mayor of the city of Barysaw, where he organized the creation of a ghetto for the city's approximately 8,000 Jews. His collaboration was crucial to the subsequent massacre. With US assistance, he emigrated to New York in 1959 and obtained citizenship in 1969. It wasn't until 1980 that the US Department of Justice initiated proceedings to deport him for his war crimes. However, Stankewitsch died in New York in November of that year, thus evading justice until the end."
