Swiss Police Claim Ignorance After 5000 Neo-Nazis Organize Rock Show/Rally


Story out of St Gallen, Switzerland:

The police said around 5,000 people attended the “Rocktoberfest” concert at the Unterwasser tennis hall in canton St Gallen on Saturday, with people reportedly travelling on buses from Germany and as far as the Netherlands and Russia.

The concert featured German rock bands Stahlgewitter, Frontalkraft, Exzess, Makss Damage and Swiss group Amok, which are well known for their extreme right-wing lyrics.

In a statement the anti-fascist group Antifa described the concert as the ‘one of the biggest Neonazi events that has ever taken place in Switzerland’. It claimed the organisers were from the international white supremacist group "Blood & Honour", which is banned in several countries.

The Swiss Foundation against Racism and Anti-Semitism (GRA) announced on Tuesday that it had filed a legal complaint against the bands and the concert organisers for violation of Swiss anti-rascism law. Cont.
