Hitler mug sold

Automatically saved draft

An undercover investigator was the undoing of a 40-year-old and a 37-year-old. The duo wanted to sell a machine gun with ammunition and several Nazi memorabilia to the police officer for around 20,000 euros. Today, Monday, they will have to answer for this in court.

Two defendants - a 40-year-old man and a 37-year-old woman - will have to answer for National Socialist reactivation today, Monday, at Ried Regional Court. Among other things, the man is said to have told an acquaintance that "no Jews were gassed during the Second World War as this was not technically possible".

Devotional objects for 20,000 euros
Together, the duo is also said to have tried to sell numerous Nazi devotional objects for around 20,000 euros. Unfortunately for the couple, however, the supposed buyer was actually not interested in the items at all, but was an undercover investigator.

Nazi uniform offered
The two defendants are said to have offered the police officer, among other things, a jug with an image of Adolf Hitler, a belt buckle with a Reich eagle and swastika, a piece of barbed wire, a black steel helmet, a swastika flag, a Nazi uniform and two Nazi slogans. But the two also had something to offer apart from the illegal brown relics.

Up to ten years in prison
They are also said to have been in possession of a fully automatic machine gun with ammunition and also wanted to sell this to the investigator for 3,000 euros. Today, the jury must examine the offense under the Weapons Act and the crime under the Prohibition Act. Both face a prison sentence of one to ten years.
