In 1945, Babor was arrested and taken
prisoner by the
French, and spent several months in a camp before being returned to
Vienna,
Austria. He finished his studies without being arrested until 1952, when he was identified by former
deportees at Gross-Rosen. He fled from Vienna and Austria, and was later found in
Ethiopia. In the meantime, his wife returned to
Germany and denounced him. She contacted
Simon Wiesenthal, who alerted the
world press (in 1963). Babor died without being found: his body was recovered in January 1964 from a river infested with
crocodiles. Police found that he had a self-inflicted gunshot wound to his head. ==References==
