German police charge far-right leader over remarks on Nazi Rudolf Hess
By Reuters
German police have charged the leader of a far-right political party
with inciting racial hatred after he recommended Adolf Hitler's former
deputy for the Nobel peace prize.
Police in the eastern city of Jena said on Friday they had filed the
charge against Udo Voigt, head of the National Democratic Party (NPD),
after he proposed the late Rudolf Hess for the prestigious award during
a speech last weekend.
If convicted of incitement, Voigt could face a jail term of up to three
years or a fine, police said.
Voigt made the comment in Jena last Saturday as he marked the 20th
anniversary of the death of Hess.

I don't think posthumous nobel prizes are even allowed. Anyway, this
reeks of irony. Using nazi tactics to silence a nazi.
