Right-wing extremist scandal

Politician advertises book with Nazi slogan on the cover

A former liberal Chamber of Commerce official from Traun in Upper Austria unabashedly posts photos on his Facebook page with an SA slogan on the cover and inside. The Mauthausen Committee sees this as a clear case of re-activation and plans to send a statement of facts to the public prosecutor's office.

The politician Christoph Stadlmann, who comes from Traun, is obviously a man for extremes. How else could his outrageous outbursts and tastelessness on his publicly accessible Facebook page be explained? The 50-year-old, who also runs a company in Leonding, seems to consciously accept the fact that this could land him in trouble under criminal law.
