<p>Some 75 objects were found hidden in a collector&#8217;s home in Beccar, a suburb north of Buenos Aires, and authorities say they suspect they are originals that belonged to high-ranking Nazis in Germany during the Second World War.</p>

<p><i>&#8220;Our first investigations indicate that these are original pieces,&#8221;</i> security minister Patricia Bullrich said, adding that many pieces were accompanied by old photographs.</p>
<p><i>&#8220;This is a way to commercialise them, showing that they were used &#8230; by the Fuhrer. There are photos of him with the objects.&#8221;</i></p>
<p>Among the disturbing items were toys Ms Bullrich said would have been used to indoctrinate children, and a statue of the Nazi Eagle above a swastika.</p>
<p>Police are trying to determine how the artifacts entered Argentina and came to be in the room hidden behind a library in the house, she said. The raid that found them was carried out on June 8.</p>

<p>The main hypothesis among investigators and member of Argentina&#8217;s Jewish community is that they were brought to Argentina by a high-ranking Nazi or Nazis after the war, when the South American country became a refuge for fleeing war criminals, including some of the best known.</p>

<p>As leading members of Hitler&#8217;s Third Reich were put on trial for war crimes, Auschwitz physician Josef Mengele fled to Argentina and lived in Buenos Aires for a decade.</p>
<p>He moved to Paraguay after Israeli Mossad agents captured Holocaust mastermind Adolf Eichmann, who was also living in Buenos Aires. Mengele later died in Brazil in 1979 while swimming off a beach in the town of Bertioga.</p>
<p>While police in Argentina did not name any high-ranking Nazis to whom the objects might have originally belonged, Ms Bullrich noted there were medical devices.</p>
<p><i>&#8220;There are objects to measure heads, that was the logic of the Aryan race,&#8221;</i> she said.</p>
