Wikipedia, 3 February 2018 (Aribert Ferdinand Heim (28 June 1914-10 August 1992) was an Austrian SS doctor, also known as "Dr Death" and the "Butcher of Mauthausen". During World War II he served at the Mauthausen-Gusen concentration camp in Mauthausen, killing and torturing inmates by various methods, such as direct injections of toxic compounds into the hearts of his victims. After the war, Heim lived for many years in Cairo, Egypt, under the alias of Tarek Farid Hussein after his conversion to Islam, and died there on 10 August 1992, according to testimony by his son and lawyer. This information, though set forth by a German court, has been challenged.)
