Brazilian skinheads sentenced to 8 years for Nazi propaganda
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleTwo skinheads are sentenced to eight years in jail in Brazil for promoting Nazi content, racism and conspiracy.
“This is a longtime action on which we have been working for some three years. We follow closely on the internet, we patrol the publications,” says Salvador Ohana, president of the Jewish Federation of the state of Minas Gerais. “We have tracked their Nazi content and the police joined us. Our lawyers served as accusers.”
The judge rejects an attempt by both defendants to plead mental insanity, and the two are sentenced to semi-open detention, whereby they work outside the jail during the day but must return to detention jail overnight.
