Football fan banned after hurling abuse at Muslims (UK)

A SELF-proclaimed "right- wing extremist" has been given a football banning order for making Nazi salutes and shouting a torrent of racist abuse at Muslim cub scouts after a Bristol Rovers match.


A court heard Martyn Howlett was walking down Muller Road in Horfield after watching Rovers play Norwich City with his family and friends when he made his shocking outburst.

Bristol Magistrates' Court was told that the 43-year-old gestured at a British National Party badge he was wearing as he abused a group of Asian children having a picnic outside the 1st Bristol Muslim Scout group's headquarters.

Waving his arms in a Nazi salute and pointing to his badge, he shouted: "It's BNP, racist, fascism and Hitler", before launching into a foul-mouthed tirade in front of the frightened children.

The court heard he then directed abuse at a young girl wearing a head scarf.

Prosecuting, Michael Hartnell said: "He was making hand gestures towards the children, and said they were out to blow something up. The children were scared and extremely concerned for their safety."

When asked what was wrong by Scout leader Sohail Javaid, Howlett repeatedly said: "This is our country, get out."
After police arrived, he said: "What is wrong with doing this? I am a right-wing extremist and I hate blacks."

The court heard Howlett, whose father Colin was the voice of Bristol Rovers on Radio Bristol for almost 30 years, had drunk about four-and-a-half pints of beer before the incident on May 1. On May 24 he was given a two-year conditional discharge after pleading guilty to committing racially aggravated disorderly behaviour.

Mr Hartnell told the court that Howlett, a Bristol Rovers season ticket holder for 37 years, had received a caution in 2008 for similar behaviour.

Howlett, 43, who lives in Muller Road, Eastville, defended himself in court.

Magistrates gave Howlett a three-year football ban, which prohibits him from entering an area 750m around the Memorial Stadium on Rovers match days for three hours before kick-off and two hours afterwards.

He is also banned from going to any football match in England or Wales, must surrender his passport to police before England away games, and not to travel to any towns or cities where Bristol Rovers or England are playing.

HUNGARIAN FAR-RIGHT MEP OPENS OFFICE IN ROMANIA

A Hungarian nationalist member of the European Parliament has opened an office in a part of Romania that once belonged to Hungary, he revealed on his website on Thursday. Csanad Szegedi said the office in the industrial city of Tirgu-Mures, or Marosvasarhely in Hungarian, was a sign that his far-right Jobbik party represents all ethnic Hungarians in the Carpathian basin. - We did not open this office as a sign of provocation, but because we would like to represent the interests of the Transylvanian Hungarians - Szegedi, 27, said on the website. - With it we would like to help create an autonomous state and to see the wider use of the Hungarian language throughout Transylvania - a section of Romania that once belonged to Hungary. Transylvania became part of Romania under the Treaty of Trianon in 1920 that sealed the fate of the Austro-Hungarian empire in the aftermath of World War I. Jobbik, with three seats in the European Parliament, has made the rights of ethnic Hungarians outside the homeland a priority, but news that Szegedi had opened an office in Targu Mures was not wholly welcomed by them. - I do not want Jobbik to open an office in Transylvania, I do not want a fascist Europe - said local historian Mihaly Spielman, as members of the Hungarian cultural elite began a petition to vent their dismay.

FAR RIGHT RENEWS VIGILANTE PATROLS AGAINST ROMA (Czech Rep.)

The Czech far-right Workers' Party of Social Justice (DSSS), direct successor to the outlawed extremist Workers' Party (DS), yesterday sent "civic patrols," it had called protective corps, to the streets in a village with some Romany population. Seven DSSD members came to Redhost, allegedly at the request of the locals who were helpless when dealing with a number of Romany families. The conflict culminated in a mass brawl at the end of May. No incident occurred in Redhost yesterday. The police checked those arriving there. The Romanies have reportedly left the village or did not go out of their homes. The DSSS members only spoke with some locals and marched through the village. The local residents told CTK all they wanted was quiet, but members of the Romany families constantly provoked them. A number of locals put up a fight in the local pub on May 28. The DSSS said the incident had a racial background. The local police spokeswoman said the police were investigating the case on the suspicion of breach of the peace, not of a racist attack.

The DSSS won 1.1 percent of votes in the late May elections to the Chamber of Deputies. The DSSS has the same representatives and a similar programme and insignia as the DS. Its membership is roughly the same as well. The Supreme Administrative Court (NSS) ruled on February 17 that the DS's programme, ideas and symbols contain the elements of xenophobia, chauvinism, homophobia and a racist subtext, and follow up national socialism, the ideology connected with Adolf Hitler. The DS incites to violence and seeks a radical change in the democratic system, the court said. The court also ruled that the DS's protective corps were trying to duplicate the roles that should be executed by the local authorities and police bodies. The verdict was upheld by the Constitutional Court on May 31. After the verdict was delivered, DS leader Tomas Vandas discontinued the activities of the corps, but said in early June he would resume them.

Pair are 'proud to be neo-Nazis' (UK)

Two men "made it their life's work" to spread racist messages and encourage others to help them achieve their goal of "the eradication of ethnic minorities from Britain", a court heard today.

Michael Heaton, 42, and Trevor Hannington, 58, both "proud" neo-Nazis, are accused at Liverpool Crown Court of urging people to kill Jews.

Andrew Edis QC, prosecuting said: "Each of these men is proud to call himself a National Socialist, or a neo-Nazi in other language.

"Each is a member of an organisation called the Aryan Strike Force, whose goal it is to clear the country of all ethnic minorities, as they say, whatever it takes."

Both men deny that postings they made on a right-wing website solicited others to murder.

Heaton is standing trial over four comments he made on the Aryan Strike Force website (ASF) between January and April 2008.

The prosecution argue that his comments about Jews - "...they will always be scum, destroy 'em with whatever it takes", and "I would encourage any religion or race that wants to destroy the Jews, I hate them with a passion..." - encourage their murder, or at least stir up racial hatred.

In one post he wrote that black people are "less intelligent than other species", and in another that Jews are leeches and "treacherous f****** scum".

Hannington denies one count of soliciting to murder with the post: "Kill the Jew, Kill the Jew, Burn down a synagogue today!... Burn the scum...".

Mr Edis told the jury of seven men and five women there was no question over whether the defendants made the postings.

"That is undisputed," he said, referring to Hannington's post.

"It's what he wanted to achieve when he put that on a forum on a website that matters."

The panel was told that Hannington has already pleaded guilty to possessing information which may be useful to terrorists.
On Wednesday he admitted to owning the Anarchist's Cookbook, Kitchen Complete and The Terrorist Encyclopaedia, all of which are considered useful tools to someone preparing or committing an act of terrorism.
He pleaded guilty to inciting racial hatred with internet posts stating his beliefs that Jews were "parasites feeding on others" and "utterly evil sub-beings".

He also admitted publishing a post on the internet with instructions on how to make a flame thrower out of a water pistol.

Mr Edis said the guilty pleas should not persuade the jury that he is guilty of the count he stands trial over, but that it demonstrates he is "to be taken seriously", and has the knowledge of how to follow his comments through into practice.
The prosecutor said Heaton made more than 3,000 posts on the ASF website between January and June 2008, before he had a "bust-up" with the organisation and created his own, The British Freedom Fighters.

The website changed its name to Legion 88 and then Wolfpack, before it was closed down.

Mr Edis explained that the number 8 refers to the eighth letter in the alphabet, H. So 88 stands for HH, as in Heil Hitler, a common greeting for neo-Nazis.

Both men used a number of monikers when they posted their comments on the website. Heaton called himself Wigan Mike, and then later Lenny. Hannington gave himself the names Fist, Lee 88 and Paul.

The prosecutor said: "These are the descriptions they gave themselves. It's how they wish to be named."

The pair were in regular contact over the internet with two men who have now been convicted of terrorism charges, including possessing the deadly poison ricin, the court heard.

Jurors were shown chatroom conversations between them and fellow racists who called themselves Sweeney and Thorburn.

Sweeney was the moniker for Ian Davison, who set up the ASF website, and is now in prison. Thorburn is the name used by his son, Nicky Davison, now serving time in a young offenders' institution.

Mr Edis told the jurors they would be shown more logs of internet chat conversations between both men and their associates during the trial.

The prosecutor briefly showed the panel a collection of photographs found on Heaton's computer, as well as a video showing him training in a form of martial art.

He is seen kicking a training partner, and Mr Edis said more videos of him teaching his skills to others will be shown.

This, he said, shows he is not simply preoccupied by posting racist material on the internet, but is active in spreading his beliefs to other.

The trial continues.

Second Swede sought over Auschwitz theft

Polish authorities want to question a second Swede, millionaire Lars-Göran Wahlström, about the theft of the "Arbeit macht frei" sign at the Auschwitz concentration camp.

The news was reported by Polish daily Rzeczpospolita, quoting Austrian news agency APA. According to the newspaper, Wahlström has a Nazi past.

Wahlström currently has power of attorney over the affairs of Anders Högstrom, who in early April was extradited to Poland on suspicion of being the brains behind the theft. He has since been in custody in Krakow awaiting trial.
During questioning, Högstrom is thought to have accused Wahlström of commissioning him and several Polish men to steal the sign. Wahlström has long denied the charges, including in an interview with newspaper Aftonbladet in January, when he said that he would be happy to be questioned by Polish police.

The Polish prosecution's spokeswoman told Rzeczpospolita that Poland will once again request assistance from the Swedish authorities. She refused to confirm whether the application was regarding a hearing for Wahlström. However, the newspaper reports that it has received reliable information regarding the case.

The theft of the gateway sign from the site of the camp near the southern Polish city of Oswiecim, which became a notorious symbol of genocide by the occupying Nazi Germans, took place on December 18th.

Polish police recovered the five-metre metal "Arbeit Macht Frei" sign ("Work Will Set You Free" in German) two days later.
