Neo-Nazis draw swastikas on handicapped man's face
Berlin - Attackers believed to be neo-Nazis drew swastikas with felt-tip pens on the face and back of a 21-year-old handicapped man in Germany, police said Tuesday.
Police said relatives had helped the man clean the ink off after the August 26 attack, but did not report it to police. Last week, a welfare worker told police, who have begun a hunt for two assailants.
Neo-Nazi slogans were also scrawled on the victim's T-shirt, said police in the northern city of Schwerin.
In a second part of former East Germany, police said Tuesday they had prevented a rampage by 150 threatening far-right youths the previous evening in the town of Eilenburg, near Leipzig.
The youths had disrupted a town hall meeting, chanted neo-Nazi- style slogans and attacked 30 Eilenburg residents who were tearing down posters pasted up illegally by the rightists. A large force of police dispersed the youths. (dpa)
