Hans Assmann (December 9, 1923 - June 19, 1998 in Danderyd hospital in Sweden) was a German who later emigrated to Finland and still later to Sweden. Allegedly, he was a KGB spy. A known fact is that he lived in Finland in 1950s and 1960s.

A former police officer, editor Matti Paloaro claims that Assmann called him in December 1997 and asked him to come and listen to his life story. According to Paloaro, Assmann told that he had served in SS troops and also as a guard in Auschwitz during World War II. He was disappointed with Nazism after he fell in love with a Jewish girl. When the relationship was found out, he was sent to the Eastern Front. He was captured by Soviets and sent to prison camp. There, he chose to become a spy.

Assmann has also been linked to the Lake Bodom murders as a potential suspect, though he had an alibi.
