Kojak: The Belarus File (1985)

In the heart of New York City, Lieutenant Theo Kojak steps into a web of mystery. A series of puzzling homicides has struck the Byelorussian community, with each victim sharing a common thread - they all arrived on American soil following the close of World War Two. At first glance, a connection between the victims appears elusive, yet Kojak feels a chilling certainty that a meticulous serial killer is at work. As Kojak delves deeper, he finds the victims were not just well-liked, law-abiding citizens but seemingly devoid of any enemies. The trail grows murkier when his relentless pursuit of truth attracts the unwanted attention of the U.S. State Department, resulting in an abrupt order to abandon the case. Undeterred, Kojak attempts to navigate the bureaucratic labyrinth of the State Department, seeking to unearth the immigration histories of the murdered men. His perseverance pays off when he encounters a compassionate officer willing to aid his quest for justice. Together, they stumble upon a chilling revelation that shifts the case's trajectory. They uncover a covert operation, buried deep within the annals of post-war American history. It involves former Nazis, their monstrous wartime acts, and the U.S. Government's clandestine role in providing them sanctuary, a strategic move to weaponize them against the Soviet Union during the Cold War. In the face of overwhelming odds, Kojak must navigate the shadowy corridors of power to expose the truth and bring the killer to justice. This tale of intrigue and suspense, set against the backdrop of political machinations, weaves a gripping narrative that will keep viewers on the edge of their seats.
