Dublin, Ireland (Independent): The Nazi past of Ireland's foremost educational publisher is to be highlighted in a television programme to be broadcast on the state system, RTE, this month. The programme details the record of Albert Folens, a Belgian who after fleeing to Ireland following the war built up a highly successful business producing school textbooks.

After treatment in an SS hospital, he joined the Gestapo, working at their Brussels headquarters, he claimed, as a translator.
