Town hall moves to prevent neo-Nazi gathering

The Hradec Králové town hall has moved to prevent a neo-Nazi gathering over the weekend. The town hall on Friday cancelled a contract for the lease of the open-air cinema where the gathering was to take place. The organizers are to receive financial compensation for the last minute cancellation. Meanwhile, police in the East Bohemian town of Hradec Králové have been bracing for the gathering which was to have been attended by several hundred neo-Nazis from around the Czech Republic and abroad. The gathering was scheduled to coincide with the death of one of Hitler’s closest aides and associates Rudolf Hesse.
