Enemies of the state, anti-Semitism, Hitler fans: the judiciary is increasingly having to deal with "right-wing" criminal cases. In Carinthia, for example, an ex-policeman as a possible Holocaust denier or a family man who hoisted a Nazi flag are causing a stir. Dozens of pupils were present at this trial - which would have ended very differently for the young people.

Four school classes with 70 young people made the pilgrimage to Klagenfurt on Wednesday to watch a trial under the 3G Prohibition Act. Initially, the dock remains empty - the 42-year-old from St. Veit prefers to be brought before the police rather than come voluntarily.
