'''László Endre''' (1st January 1895-29th March 1946) was a Hungarian politician and [[Nazi]] collaborator.

Having been born in Abony in 1895, Endre became involved in far-right politics, eventually joining the governing party under [[ Béla Imrédy|Béla Imrédy]]. Deciding that the country's [[Anti-Semitism|Anti-Semitic]] laws were not strong enough, Endre began introducing legislation banning Jews from certain areas until the Interior Ministry reversed his changes.

In 1944, [[Adolf Hitler]] invaded Hungary and forced regent [[Miklós Horthy de Nagybánya]] to remove Imrédy' s successor Miklós Kállay from power and replace him with Nazi sympathiser [[Döme Sztójay]], who appointed Endre state secretary to the Interior Ministry, where he worked with Minister of the Interior [[Andor Jaross]] and fellow state secretary [[László Baky]] to deport Hungarian Jews to [[Auschwitz Birkenau]] with help from [[Adolf Eichmann]].

In September 1944, Horthy turned on the Nazis and removed Sztójay, Endre and others from power, only to be deposed and imprisoned by the Nazis, who put [[Arrow Cross Party]] leader [[Ferenc Szálasi]] in power, allowing him to bring back Endre. However, the war ended the following year and Endre was arrested in Austria and deported to Hungary, where he was convicted of [[Genocide]] and mass murder and executed by hanging in 1946.
