Germany requested Demjanjuk's extradition in 2009 to stand trial for his alleged role as an accessory to murder during World War II. He was accused of serving as a guard at the Sobibor extermination camp in Nazi-occupied Poland, where over 250,000 Jews were systematically murdered. The charges stemmed from his involvement in the operation of gas chambers and the mistreatment of prisoners.
