LATEST: Jewish leaders have demanded British royal PRINCE HARRY visit the concentration camp at Auschwitz, Poland - following his controversial decision to wear a Nazi uniform to a fancy dress party at the weekend (8JAN05).

Critics were outraged by the heir's gaffe and want him to join a group visiting the site later this month (27JAN05), to mark the 60th anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz.

RABBI MARVIN HIER, dean of the American-based SIMON WIESENTHAL CENTER, says, "This was a shameful act displaying insensitivity for the victims, not just for those soldiers of his own country who gave their lives to defeat Nazism but to the victims of the Holocaust.

"We strongly urge Prince Harry to accompany the British delegation on 27th January (05) to the Auschwitz death camp to commemorate 60 years since liberation. There he will see the results of the hated symbol he so foolishly and brazenly chose to wear."
