Two months before the national referendum on the ratification of the UN Anti-Racism Convention racial harassment is on the increase. After a series of attacks against immigrants, especially Tamils, there was a change of tactic on the night of 27 July. A group of six young skinheads attacked a group of boy scouts sleeping out in the forest. The neo-nazis forced them to undress and shout "Heil Hitler" and other nazi slogans. The boys were badly beaten and humiliated. Six skinheads have admitted the offence and openly admitted their support for the far right.
