Savitri Devi Mukherhi (born Maximiani Julia Portas) was a French-born writer, Nazi sympathiser and spy. During the second world war she served the Axis cause by spying against the Allied forces in India. An exponent of Esoteric Hilterism, she was a leader of and influential among the neo-Nazi underground movement in the 1960s. A proponent of a blending between Hinduism and Nazism, she saw Adolf Hitler as a sacrifice for humankind which would end the worst age the world had seen, a state which she blamed upon the Jewish nation. She was also a radical and committed animal rights activist and vegetarian.
